At TURNER SUPPLIES we embraced the opportunity to join The TIDAL Alliance as we feel it is the platform that will help us move our business to the next level. In our view belonging to a fast growing forward thinking organisation like TIDAL is essential given the pace of change within our industry and presents us with the tools and products to enter and compete on a national platform.

Being a member of TIDAL will enhance our commitment to our existing customers and help us demonstrate to new potential customers the true value Turner Supplies can add to their business. TIDAL will give Turner Supplies the opportunity to work within a professional network of distributors who are dedicated to add value to the whole supply chain.

Granville statement about Tidal: Granville Supplies are looking forward to the prospect of working with a group of like-minded distributors to offer a unique regional and national bodyshop supply solution. Being a TIDAL partner, we can offer the unrivalled service and support that will make us stand out from many other suppliers.

The TIDAL partnership will strengthen our sales offer and enhance our team as we share resources together with other progressive distributors throughout the UK. Being a TIDAL member will enable Granville to move forwards with attractive proposals together with a Granville support infrastructure including IMI accredited bodyshop training through our sister company Peterborough Skills Academy.

Graham Smith, Managing Director

Granville Supplies Ltd

TIDAL allows strong independent distributors to stay autonomous and adaptive to their local market, but have the access to a national platform. Customers can be satisfied that the supplier understands thoroughly their local market but at the same time are working with a fully supported supply chain that is working together. Effectively customers don’t choose suppliers, but instead the best network, platform and supply chains. TIDAL understands this and is in the best position to offer this solution.
