Development History: From Startup to Global Leader

The history of the Wolseley Group can be traced back to the late 19th century, when the founder, John Wolseley, founded a trading company in the UK that focused on building materials and engineering products. With high-quality products and reliable services, the company won wide recognition from customers in a short period of time and gradually expanded its business scope.

After entering the 20th century, with the rapid development of industrialization and the acceleration of urbanization, the Worsley Group seized this historical opportunity and began to enter a wider market. Especially after the end of World War II, European countries carried out large-scale reconstruction work, which provided the Worsley Group with unprecedented development opportunities. By continuously optimizing supply chain management, improving customer service quality and expanding product lines, the Worsley Group quickly grew into a first-class enterprise in the industry.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, with the acceleration of globalization and the promotion of technological innovation, the Worsley Group has further strengthened its international layout. Through mergers and acquisitions, cooperation and other means, the Worsley Group has successfully entered more emerging markets and established a complete sales network and service system around the world.
