The R Collard Case Study

Chris Walsh

Head of Health and Safety

For me, I'd have no hesitation in recommending SMI.

Their service has been absolutely exemplary; the product supply has been perfect for our needs and I've got every confidence going forward that they'll be able to meet our demands.

Working in Partnership

R Collard is one of the leading waste management, demolition, and cement production companies in the South of England.

Headquartered in Hampshire, with depots across Hampshire, Berkshire, and Surrey, the business supports both construction and domestic customers.

R Collard invited SMI to tender for its PPE contract alongside four other suppliers. Our competitive pricing, comprehensive service offering, and strong growth trajectory aligned closely with R Collard's own ambitions. As a result, SMI was awarded the contract.

Since then, we've built a strong partnership based on service, support, and shared goals. As R Collard continues to grow, we look forward to supporting its future requirements and initiatives.
