All Tools Direct on the up


Spb Tools (ire) Limited, trading as All Tools Direct, is one of Ireland’s largest wholesalers of garage workshop tools and equipment.

The company first opened its doors in December 2017, supplying garage equipment to the trade, after its first successful year of trading and after expanding its brand selection to include some of the best and well-known brands in the industry.

Brands such as TMUS, Marenello, Neilsen, US-Pro, Draper, SIP, and Milwaukee – to name just a few – make up All Tools Direct’s impressive portfolio.

The company has since changed its store layout to welcome walk-in trade and the public, as well as offering a professional retail experience in store.

Over the last couple of years, All Tools Direct boasts that its range has increased to over 5,000 in-store and 3,200 products online, which all feature on its newly launched website, alltoolsdirect.com.

This range covers all areas of the industry, including heavy lifting garage equipment, garage consumables, special service tools, timing tools, and everything else you will ever need to run your business as cost efficiently and as effortlessly as possible.

All Tools Direct will also be exhibiting at next year’s Auto Trade EXPO, which takes place from May 7-8 at Citywest Exhibition Centre in Dublin. The company will have a wide range of the aforementioned products on display at the 2022 show.

Gerard Brennan, director at All Tools Direct said: “From day one, our mission has been to carry the biggest range of garage equipment and tools in Ireland at the best prices we can, and to keep our stock current and available as best we can.

“Pile it high and sell it cheap has proven to be a welcome concept. This also enables us to buy more volume and secure better prices from all over the globe. Currently, we buy from eight different countries in Europe and Asia.”

Gerard added: “Given the current climate in the last couple of years with Covid-19 and Brexit, we haven’t been immune to the rising costs across all aspects of our business, including rising raw material costs and shipping rates, all of which have taken a sharp rise in the past 12 months, and we have reacted by securing price guarantees from haulers, couriers, and most importantly, our suppliers.

“We will continue to work tirelessly to improve the way we conduct our business and make the new processes more economical and efficient so we can continue to deliver the most comprehensive range for our customers.

“With new regulations regarding import and export with the United Kingdom, it has certainly took its toll and slowed the movement of goods, but we are still confident that the supply of tools and equipment won’t be affected too much.”

Based in Ballymount Industrial Estate, Dublin 12, All Tools Direct is open six days a week through Monday to Saturday. Phone (0) 1426 4813 or visit alltoolsdirect.com.
