MKM Building Supplies (MKM), the independent builders’ merchant, is opening its 135th branch in Wolverhampton on Monday 7th July 2025. MKM Wolverhampton will create 19 new jobs and deliver expert advice, strong stock levels, and friendly, no-nonsense service to the city’s trade and DIY community.
Located on Neachells Lane, the branch is designed to be a one-stop shop for anyone working on a project – whether a builder, plumber, or someone tackling a bit of home improvement. Stocked with everything from bricks, timber and plumbing essentials to landscaping and kitchen products, MKM Wolverhampton offers free next-day delivery and a warm welcome from a team that knows the trade inside out.
Led by Branch Directors David Wint, Dave Horton, and Dan Mansell – who together bring over 100 years of industry experience – all three were born and bred in Wolverhampton and are passionate about creating a builders’ merchant that truly understands what the local community needs.
As David Wint said:
“We’re proud of where we’re from and want to give something back—whether that’s time, materials, or sponsorship to help local kids get stuck into sport. We’ve chosen to support Ward 9 at Birmingham Children’s Hospital, a cause close to a few of our team, and we’re kicking things off with a £500 donation and a launch raffle to raise even more.”
MKM Wolverhampton introduces the company’s first-ever ‘Fast Lane’ drive-thru warehouse. With two vehicle entrances, the Fast Lane is designed to speed up service, reduce waiting times and cut out unnecessary manual handling. MKM team members will load vehicles directly, improving safety on site, reducing congestion, and delivering a quick, professional and smooth experience—all designed with tradespeople in mind.
Dan Mansell explained:
“We’ve worked in this trade a long time—helping customers, loading wagons, sorting stock—and we know what works. MKM gives us the freedom to bring that proper, personal service back. We’re about no faff—just decent stock, knowledgeable people, and quick turnarounds.”
The new branch includes a 5,000 sq ft covered warehouse and carries trusted brands like Worcester Bosch, Wienerberger, Makita, Roca, Symphony Kitchens, and Ocean Air Renewables. With an extensive fleet, including three HGV crane wagons and a transit van, with free local delivery as standard, same-day deliveries are possible too.
Dave Horton said:
“We’re not tied down by corporate restrictions—we make all our decisions locally, so we can respond quickly and keep things flexible. That’s what sets MKM apart.”
