BandQ Online UK

The 1990s were an exciting time for BandQ . In 1995, the first larger format BandQ Warehouse store opened and we began opening for business on Sundays. In January 1996 BandQ 's first store outside the UK was opened in Taiwan. BandQ has been in the DIY business for more than 30 years and is the UK 's most successful and innovative home improvement retailer. BandQ employs over 36,000 people in over 320 UK stores.

BandQ operates two different kinds of stores - the larger BandQ Warehouses which cater for the needs of the keen DIY'er and trade with their wide range of products and staff expertise, and BandQ Supercentres which are convenient for most people to pop into for their everyday needs. In 1998 BandQ merged with France 's leading DIY retailer, Castorama, to become the largest DIY retailer in Europe. In June of 1999 the International Expansion continued with the opening of the Shanghai store - BandQ's first in mainland China. BandQ also took a big step with the acquisition of Screwfix Direct, the hardware mail order specialist.
