Pimlico Plumbers has reported promising sales data to demonstrate the business’ success in the wake of the pandemic.
Pimlico’s longstanding chairman and founder Charlie Mullins, credited for successfully steering the business through a number of devastating recessions and economic storms, announced a positive economic update this week.
He said: “There is good reason to be optimistic that things will continue to get better considering the success Pimlico Plumbers has seen this month. This is great news and tells me that people are feeling optimistic about the future. In past recessions, planned work has always been the first to go as people switch to doing only essential and emergency work. This time my plumber’s barometer is behaving very differently.
“I can’t speak for all businesses, and obviously lots of work needs to be done to return such vital industries as gyms and beauty salons to the economy, but I am hopeful that the amount of activity and consumer confidence in the U-bend related sector will transfer to a rapid about-face in the fortunes for the rest of UK PLC.”
This month Pimlico Plumbers is 10% up on the first two weeks compared to the same period of 2019 and last week it booked £281,900 in pre-scheduled work – an all-time company record.
