MacBlair has strategically
positioned itself as an excellent choice for both aspiring self-builders and
seasoned trade professionals. With a history dating back over 50 years, it has been an integral part of Northern Ireland’s construction industry, and its legacy remains strong.

This wealth of experience across our team enables new staff members to quickly settle into the branch and begin to learn and understand our business.” The refurbished store reopened on September 2, officially launching to the community with a very successful Trade Week held over September 9-13. The event was attended by leading suppliers, showcasing their products and the latest innovations to the industry. “We also took this opportunity to revamp our plumbing and heating offering, with 95% of our products now on the shop floor,” said Paul. “This not only highlights our full range of products but allows customers to shop at their own pace and pick up items which may have been forgotten previously when our range was held in our back store.” On top of the extensive stock offering in branch, the team can also source products to order from all major industry suppliers. “The ability to deliver high-quality service in a relaxed, friendly manner while also
