ITS OFFICIAL…WHIZZLE LTD
CONFIRMS FREE NEXT DAY
DELIVERIES ON ORDERS OF £69+
Rumours had been circulating that
Whizzle, the national trade wholesaler
of sealants and consumables, would
aim to set the standard for the lowest
carriage paid order quantity amongst
their peers.
Even industry insiders were surprised,
however, that the level was set at a
bargain £69! Commenting, MD Mark
Read explained that, while Whizzle was
regarded as offering very competitive
pricing and superb service within the
larger user segment of the industry,
many smaller installer/fabricators had
found the previous carriage paid figure
of £175 too high.
“But not anymore!” Mark continued.
A sneak preview of Whizzle’s new
pricing structure illustrates significant
price breaks for higher volume users
– although even on smaller quantities
prices look highly competitive.
Mark added: “For the first time, smaller
users can enjoy the benefits that larger
users have traditionally enjoyed from
Whizzle but without ordering more than
is needed. We believe that this new
offering provides excellent pricing, next
day delivery wit h a 15 minute slot and
even the ability to track or change delivery
time/location from a mobile phone.”
The change takes place on 1 June
2014.
