Express Plumbing Supplies welcomes Brisbane Wholesale Hardware to our network

We’re excited to announce a significant milestone for Express Plumbing Supplies: Brisbane Wholesale Hardware (BWH) has officially joined the Express network. This expansion marks our fifth Express branch and brings the combined K&R Plumbing Supplies / Bretts Plumbing Supplies / Express group to 12 branches across Queensland.

Located in Woolloongabba, BWH has proudly served the plumbing trade for more than 65 years. Under the leadership of Gordon Bletchly, the third generation of the founding family, BWH has earned a strong reputation for expertise in specialist plumbing replacement markets.

As we enter this new chapter together, the existing BWH team will continue to serve customers under the well-respected BWH brand, now supported by the wider Express network. This means customers can expect the same familiar faces and trusted service — backed by the scale, resources, and benefits of being part of Express.

Express Plumbing Supplies is also a proud member of Plumbing Plus, Australia’s largest network of independent plumbing merchants. This partnership gives us the buying power to stay competitive while continuing to offer great value to our customers.

At Express, our growth is driven by one goal: to better serve our customers. By carefully integrating businesses with strong foundations and respected histories, we ensure every step forward not only strengthens our network but also honours the legacy of the teams who built it.

We’re proud to welcome Brisbane Wholesale Hardware to the Express Plumbing Supplies family and look forward to building an even stronger future — together.
