Note: Some people are using our website as a
benchmark to hit other retailers with
This is;
A.
Upsetting our counterparts
B.
Not doing us any favours - as when others then offer to match our deals - they get the sale
and not us - Doh!
So... If we have what you are looking for.... at the
right price...
then please do buy it from us and let us show you what we have to offer
beyond price alone
or we may end up closing this website for doing us more harm than good :-(
And remember:-
Why shop with Hylands?
Think it's more convenient to shop
elsewhere?
We think its very important to at least
consider us as a local firm
Many stores make it convenient -
up to the point you part with your
money!
We offer home delivery
with assembly,
connection and test available for most products
yet without the big overheads of the retail parks our prices can be more competitive
----------------------------
Plus there is another consideration
As a local firm we actively try to support other local
firms
for all our own needs
This keeps money going around in the local economy, especially if these
firms then in turn use other
local firms for their own needs as well
i.e. - where you get one large store doing the business of 1000 local
stores - this has a major knock on effect
Just one example would be the large store will use a firm of national
accountants where 1000 local stores would all have used local accountants
The local accountants would then in turn have their own day to day running needs
for their businesses
And accountants
are just one example, every firm has many needs to operate, large firms may
appear to bring in many jobs,
in reality behind the scenes they often don't as far
more jobs are then lost when smaller firms close

Remember if cash coming into an area - stays in that area,
as more cash continues to come in, the area as a whole becomes better off
( There is more & more cash going around )
& what goes
around - comes around - as they say
You may even see more of it yourself ?
However, when cash is spent with outside firms,
even with branches in the area, this is taking
money out of that economy
The more money that is taken out, the less cash that area has & poorer the area becomes,
especially when
more is going out than coming in.
Its just the same with countries (If you buy or import more
than you sell or export)
or even with your own home finances (If you pay out more than you bring in, you have a
problem building)
Outside firms are like tree's - sending roots into surrounding
areas (or countries) to feed their own growth

Stafford Borough Council with Stafford Chamber of Commerce and
Industry
have a project to try &
promote business to business trade within the county
This is exactly right, the more people who shop locally
or trade with one another
the better
off the area as a whole will become
So
- please do consider local firms
Especially when they can offer you the same
- if not like us - often better deals

Sorry to bore you, but
we strongly believe the
above to be true :-)
Some may say the big stores employ more people
than we do
We employ enough people to handle the loyal customers we have
The more customers we have - the more people we will need to do that
