UK

Toolstation UK continued to make strong progress during the year with revenue increasing by 2.7%, reflecting store maturity benefits, price inflation and further enhancements to the digital and physical customer experience. App sales are increasing and growth in customer loyalty, with c. 700k Toolstation Club members now signed up, has helped increase average order value for those customers.

A net three stores were added during the year with eight new stores and five closures. Up to 20 new store openings are expected in 2026, including the launch of the new urban convenience format Toolstation GO, which is being trialled with the first store opening in Battersea, London. 

Adjusted operating profit increased by £10m (29.4%) year-on-year driven by a combination of sales growth, gross margin benefits from improved purchasing, and pricing and supply chain efficiencies. 

The Group looks forward to another year of strong progress in Toolstation UK in 2026 

Benelux

Toolstation Benelux generated an adjusted operating loss of £11m in 2025, a slight improvement on the prior year. While store-generated sales were up 7.0% on a like-for-like basis and overheads well controlled, the upgrade to the Benelux customer website during the first half caused significant disruption and did not deliver the expected online sales growth, with online sales down by 1.8%. 

With the Dutch and Belgium markets remaining subdued, management will continue to review its strategy in Benelux. Short-term actions being taken to reduce the ongoing losses include a proposed restructure and reduction in central headcount and the implementation of further supply chain efficiencies.

The Group expects a similar level of loss in Toolstation Benelux in 2026.
