Online presence will be extended

HAVING seen the company grow nationally and internationally through its website product listing, Emfast Limited in Wellingborough is taking the next step and is planning a new website that will make products available to buy online.

Until now, customers were only able to browse a general product overview on the company’s website before placing an order by email or telephone. The new website will include online ordering, and individual customer portals enabling customers to download copy invoices, statements etc. at the click of a button.

The Finedon Road Industrial Estate firm supplies a complete range of fasteners and fixings including nuts, bolts, screws and rivets both blind and solid type as well as associated engineering adhesives, abrasives, hand tools, lubricants, safety wear and construction fixings. Other products include clinch fasteners for sheet steel, such as rivet nuts, capacitive discharge weld studs and self clinch nuts and studs.

Emfast also offers a range of lifting and clamping products including chain, eyebolts, eye nuts, as well as carbine hooks, turnbuckles, steel wire rope and associated products.

Director Dee Legg said: “Our existing website has been up and running for some years and has served us well, but we’ve never sold online. Customers could browse and then order through us, but now they will be able to buy directly from the website.

“The range of fasteners and associated products is so vast that people need to be sure they are ordering exactly what they need. We’ve always been here to advise, and we still will be, but we will be including photographs and comprehensive technical information on the website so that they can make a more informed decision about what they need to suit their requirements.

“It will be a major step forward for us, as it’s the way people prefer to shop now and we believe it will open up an even wider customer base for Emfast.”

Director Carl Vickers said the new website will go live in Q3 of 2017.

In addition to the website, there’s a busy trade counter where local customers can drop in to pick up what they require. Additional staff have been taken on over the past year or so to cope with the increasing demand.

A stock control system for regular customers ensures that supplies are automatically topped up or restocked as and when necessary.
