Sainsbury’s Shops With PTSG
Premier Technical Services Group Ltd (PTSG) has secured a contract to deliver specialist services for Sainsbury’s at sites throughout the UK.
J Sainsbury plc, trading as Sainsbury’s, is the second largest chain of supermarkets in the United Kingdom, with a 14.9% share of the supermarket sector.
Sainsbury’s was established as a partnership in 1869, when John James Sainsbury and his wife Mary Ann opened a shop at 173 Drury Lane in Covent Garden, London. Sainsbury started as a retailer of fresh foods and later expanded into packaged groceries such as tea and sugar. His trading philosophy, as stated on a sign outside his first shop was: “Quality perfect, prices lower”.
Sainsbury’s supply chain operates from thirteen regional distribution centres (RDCs), with two national distribution centres for slower moving goods, and two frozen food facilities. In addition, the depot at Tamworth transships general merchandise to the RDCs.
The new contract will see PTSG Building Access Specialists Ltd delivering specialist glazing services for Sainsbury’s covering approximately 800 stores. The work will run for a three-year term, across Scotland the North and Midlands.
This contract win strengthens PTSG’s position in delivering glazing services nationally.
PTSG Building Access Specialists Ltd is one of the Group’s five divisions. The other four are PTSG Access & Safety Ltd, PTSG Electrical Services Ltd, PTSG Fire Solutions Ltd and PTSG Water Treatment Ltd. Together, they deliver the full range of specialist services to the construction and FM sectors.
