Last month, Brewers Decorator Centre's celebrated their 120th year, where colleagues and suppliers from across the company came together to celebrate the achievement. The day focused on looking ahead to what the future has in store for the biggest independent painting and decorating supplier in the UK with a series of talks and events.
Brewers opened their first store in Eastbourne in 1904, after Clement Brewer had the dream of supplying the professional decorator with everything they need for the perfect finish. Now, after 120 years and over 200 Brewers stores across the UK, they have not only realised Clement Brewer’s vision, but are well on their way to achieve their 2024 vision of playing their part to make the world a brighter place.
The morning saw Brewers leaders take to the stage at The Congress Theatre in Eastbourne to talk about different areas of the business. This included exciting new product launches from Brewers own paint brand, Albany as well as new and exciting services being offered to customers very soon!
In the afternoon, Brewers colleagues were able to browse Brewers’ very own trade show, with all the major decorating brands heading to Eastbourne to have quality conversations, play games and even give out some freebies! The day concluded with Brewers’ colleagues and suppliers coming together once again in the evening for one final celebration.
Thanks to suppliers, the trade show raised 200k, a figure which Brewers are delighted to match to total of £400k. This significant donation will be made to Dreamland Mission Hospital in Kenya to fund their new A&E department.
The hospital has been supported by Brewers for over a decade, both in size and in scope of the medical services they can offer. The next team of Brewers colleagues going out to Dreamland to volunteer and learn about the great work the hospital carry out will be in September 2025, when the A&E department will hopefully be completed and fully functioning.
