IES Expands Operations with New Branch Opening in Washdyke

IES, an engineering supply company founded by Clayton and Rachael Holland, has announced the opening of a new branch in Washdyke. This expansion reflects the business’s steady growth and commitment to serving the local industry in South Canterbury. With a focus on providing reliable, affordable, and high-quality engineering supplies, IES has become a vital resource for contractors, workshop owners, farmers, and DIY enthusiasts across the region.

The Hollands established IES with a clear mission: to support local industries by offering an extensive range of products. Starting as a small local supplier, the company quickly gained a reputation for its integrity, customer service, and technical expertise. Over the years, IES has evolved into a cornerstone of the local engineering sector, providing everything from power tools and hand tools to specialized industrial parts.

The decision to open a new location in Washdyke was driven by strong community support and customer demand. According to Clayton Holland, “Our customers have been asking for us to expand to Washdyke for some time.” This new branch aims to enhance accessibility for clients, reducing travel time for local businesses and tradespeople while increasing overall efficiency.

Commitment to Community and Quality

The Washdyke branch, located at 25 Seadown Rd, is designed to mirror the success of the existing Latter St site. It will feature an extensive inventory of engineering supplies, including critical spare parts and state-of-the-art tools for various applications. Furthermore, IES will maintain its tradition of offering expert advice and tailored solutions, ensuring that customers receive precisely what they need for their projects.

Rachael Holland emphasized the significance of community support in their journey. “This expansion isn’t just about growth; it’s about investing back into our community and helping local industries thrive. We’re proud to be part of Timaru’s industrial heartbeat and look forward to strengthening our relationships here,” she noted.

Grand Opening Celebration

To commemorate this milestone, IES will host a grand opening event at the new Washdyke location. The celebration begins at 11:00 AM and will feature an all-day barbecue, along with special opening deals available throughout the day. Both Clayton, Rachael, and the entire IES team invite existing and new customers to attend, meet the staff, and explore the expanded facilities.

The opening of the Washdyke branch marks a significant step forward for IES, reinforcing the company’s commitment to serving and strengthening the local industry for years to come. Thanks to the incredible support from the community, the Hollands and their team are excited to take IES to new heights with this expansion.
