Unilin Flooring, a division of Unilin Group, has announced the signing of an agreement to purchase Salesmark Ltd, a regional distributor in the UK. This acquisition is in line with the businesses’ strategic growth ambition and allows Unilin to offer a greatly enhanced level of service to customers across England and Wales. It will complement and enhance the company’s existing distribution model by more than doubling the current fleet of delivery vehicles and adding additional warehouse capacity.

This expansion greatly enhances Unilin Flooring’s operations in the UK where currently, through Unilin Distribution Ltd, they offer a wide and innovative range of flooring products to its customers. 

Commenting on the acquisition, Nigel McManus, General Manager at Unilin Distribution said: “Unilin Distribution Ltd was the first distributor acquired by the Unilin Group back in 2009 and since then we have experienced impressive growth and high levels of customer satisfaction. The acquisition of Salesmark will greatly add to this growth by incorporating their excellent customer service model into our own.”

Ruben Desmet, President of Unilin Flooring and member of the Unilin Group Executive Committee, said: “I am delighted to welcome Salesmark’s new colleagues to our group. We are fully committed to strengthening our position as a European leader in our markets, and this agreement is an important step forward.”
