Abbirko Group announces two acquisitions

It is with great pleasure that Abbirko announce the acquisition of both Dickie Dyer Marketing and Scottool. Abbirko, originally established in 1920 by Norman Birks, has gone on to become a leading manufacturer of hand tools & consumables for the Gas and Water Industries.

“Securing these businesses during the current economic climate is a positive move with an eye on the future,” says John Wirdnam, Managing Director at Abbirko Group for the past 20 years. “This is one of several steps being undertaken to ensure an enhanced offering to our clients.”

Alongside a comprehensive product range under the three brands, Newtool, Scottool and Dickie Dyer, Abbirko are in the enviable position of being able to offer private labelled products. “Our aim is very straight forward: to deliver great products to the right place at the right time with the right paperwork,” stated John.

All three brands will continue to trade their current offering in tools, consumables and safety protection; whilst a new website is being constructed to create a universal hub where all products can easily be viewed in one place.

Mike Windsor, who joined the Group as a director prior to the acquisitions, added, “These are exciting times for Abbirko and we are very pleased that Jeff Gilbey of Scottool and Dickie Dyer will be staying with the business”.
