Anchor Pumps report 260% online revenue rises

Warrington-based firm, Anchor Pumps, has cheered 260% online revenue growth in just 12 months.

The business, which distributes domestic and industrial pumps, has experienced rapid sales increases over the past year, both in the UK and worldwide markets.

After 41 years in business dealing with industrial customers, Anchor Pumps decided to venture into e-commerce in 2011.

Since then they have increased their number of products sold via their website by 300% year-on-year, and started selling to the domestic market.

Demand from overseas has also had a dramatic impact on business, and caused the company to open an additional online multi-store specifically for customers in Cyprus and Malta.

Anchor Pumps’ customers in Australia will also soon be provided with a new website, which is set to launch later in 2013.

Managing director Warren Holmes commented: “We are thrilled with the speed Anchor Pumps online has grown and the opportunities the website has provided for the company.

“I would thoroughly recommend other local businesses looking at the opportunities taking your business online can bring, and we are excited to see what the future holds for Anchor Pumps.”

As the UKs leading pump distributor, Anchor Pumps specialize in domestic and industrial pumps, including shower pumps. booster pumps and heating pumps. Their range covers some of the most trusted brands in the marketplace, including Grundfos, and Calpeda pumps.
