Why buy British for your Hair, Beauty or Spa Business?<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Buying UK-made\u00a0Furniture for your Salon, Barbers, Spa and other Health and Beauty business brings a diverse range of advantages. Especially if you look at recent global events. Here are just some of the reasons that buying goods Made in Britain, makes sense.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Supply Chain Problems & Delays<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

A Pandemic, War and the lingering impact of Brexit are all helping to disrupt international supply chains. This can make delivery deadlines slow and unreliable, especially for goods travelling by sea. It could leave you with purchases that are hard \u2013 or impossible \u2013 to return if they are incorrect or faulty. As a British Manufacturer we offer clear prices for delivery too; no hidden extras for additional freight or customs charges!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Other Transport Issues<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

The challenges of getting equipment from overseas are not just due to major world events. For example, there is a widespread European shortage of staff, affecting international transport and logistics companies.\u00a0Fortunately, here at REM we have focused on creating robust last mile delivery systems. We offer reliable dates for goods to arrive on time, as well as quick turnaround on equipment orders. REM Furniture, including fully bespoke\u00a0products are turned around within 4 to 6 weeks,\u00a0importers cannot get anywhere near this!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Rising Costs<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

At one time, the main attraction of using overseas suppliers was cost savings. However, saving money often means that corners are cut and poor quality furniture is usually the result.\u00a0With rising fuel costs and logistic delays often make it economically more viable to source from British manufacturers. There’s also no currency rate variation or variation in price\u00a0because of this.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Quality Issues<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

UK manufacturers of specialist equipment are tied by rigorous British quality standards, and trade body guidelines.\u00a0This ensures that you can buy equipment for barbering, hair salons and spas from REM with confidence. The same quality standards are hard to check \u2013 or woefully absent \u2013 from some overseas suppliers. Or poorly-made items need to be replaced more often.\u00a0Cheapest is not always best in the long run<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Corporate Responsibility<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Buying British-made equipment also makes your supply chain more transparent and accountable. This can be vital if you have a strong corporate responsibility stance and want to be certain that suppliers practice sustainable manufacturing, for example.\u00a0It\u2019s also crucial to know that the working conditions of the workers who make the furniture are good and pay is at an acceptable level.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
