We are thrilled to share that Harlow Timber Group has been featured in the latest edition of CIN Magazine! This piece, written by our Group Managing Director Neil Sabey, showcases our journey, our values, and our commitment to empowering our people and building a sustainable future for the timber industry.
In the article, Neil Sabey provides insights into how professional development has assisted in our growth. “Our learning programs are designed to enhance team members’ skills and knowledge, which I believe positively impacts the overall customer experience,” Neil shares. His own story, starting as an apprentice, highlights the pathways we work hard to create for each team member’s success.
The magazine feature also highlights our commitment to sustainability, a value that sits at the heart of what we do. As the first independent timber merchant to be recognized as a BMF Zero Carbon Business Champion, we are dedicated to environmentally friendly practices, from investing in EV vehicles to supporting sustainable timber sourcing. “Timber is the most sustainable construction material available,” says Neil, “making it increasingly popular in these ecologically focused times.”
Our transition to an Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) is another proud achievement covered in the article. This move reinforces our commitment to putting our people at the core of our mission. "As an EOT, we’re now working for the future benefit and shared success of all our employees,” Neil says.
As an added point of pride, the article spotlights our rapid expansion in the digital space, particularly through our e-commerce platform, which was launched just as the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded. Now one of our fastest-growing segments, this platform allows us to serve customers across the UK, bringing timber and timber-related products to even more people and businesses nationwide.
We invite you to read the full article to learn more about our story, our values, and our vision for the future.
