Our Story

TWO DECADES OF DETAIL

In retail, one size never fits all. Different brands need different packaging, bespoke signage, specific bags, and their logo on almost everything. Before 2005, it was either make-do with generic versions, or spend big on tailored ones from multiple suppliers. Sigh.

So that same year, we had an idea to be a new kind of partner to retailers. One that puts them in the driving seat. Sourcing and supplying all the items they need but don’t sell. While meeting their needs on costs, quality and sustainability.

With £70m+ revenue in 2023-24, we’re now the exclusive provider of consumables, packaging and catering supplies to some of the world’s household brands. Still from our base in Cardiff.

WELL HELLO THERE NEIGHBOUR

Wherever in the world you are, we’ve got warehouses and logistics networks already set up, just down the road.

THEY SAID WHAT?

There’s no way we’d toot our own horns. Even though it’s really easy to toot a horn. No, we much prefer letting our clients do that.

The review exercise was managed effectively with clear and concise comms throughout. And with the provision of an optimal warehousing solution, this has ultimately removed a huge burden for us. CCS McLays have been excellent.

CCS understood and exceeded all expectations with regards to the overall service provided. They took the time to audit our business and got the solution we required from day one. A solution we didn't know we initially needed.

The CCS McLays audit gave us a greater understanding of our business. Engaging the stores in the approach created a platform for a true partnership solution.
