Christmas Donation to Hope House

This year has been challenging in lots of different ways, including for the charities sector, whose usual fundraising channels have been severely impact by the ongoing pandemic.

Because of this, we have decided that this year, instead of the usual Christmas gift to customers as we normally would, we will making a donation to one of our local charities, Hope House.

Along with this donation, the Globestock office and factory will be taking part in National Christmas Jumper day, so any funds raised from staff participating and the sale of cakes will also be donated to Hope House.

Hope House do some amazing work for families across Shropshire and North Wales. Find out more about the work they do.

Important Announcement – Globestock Open For Business

As of 14/04/20 Globestock reopened for business, albeit on a limited basis.

Although we took necessary steps to safeguard our staff and customers by temporarily closing at the end of March, we recognised that many of our valued distributors and their clients working in key industries are still operating and have demand for our equipment and servicing.

Therefore, despite these unusual times, we have returned with a skeleton crew of remote working admin staff and on-premise production operatives, with the latter working in accordance with Government guidelines in respect of social distancing and appropriate use of PPE in the workplace. Additionally, these staff have been issued with anti-viral cleaning supplies to keep them, their production environment and the products being dispatched, as safe as possible.

Whilst we are pleased to announce the resumption of servicing and the processing of orders, which will enable customers to access essential Globestock safety equipment, it’s worth noting that our response times may not be as quick as usual and the prompt lead times on goods, that our customers are familiar with, may need to be extended in some cases, so we kindly request your patience should this is occur.

Our premises are open, but only for essential staff and couriers to collect items being dispatched. Customers may arrange to collect urgent orders, but this must be done strictly with prior appointment.

We will continue to monitor the wider situation and, as circumstances permit, will look to ramp-up back to full capacity as soon as possible.

We wish all our customers the very best in these unusual times and look forward to supporting you through this by reopening now.

Immediate Temporary Shutdown

In light of yesterday’s Government announcement (23/03/20), Globestock Ltd are bringing forward a temporary shutdown with immediate effect. This means all business activities are suspended, including any outstanding orders or deliveries.

We had planned to continue operating until next week, with the intention of giving our customers adequate notice and the chance to prepare for our temporary closure. However, to comply with the changes to Government guidelines issued on 23/03/20, we have no option but to pause all of our activities immediately. We apologise for any confusion caused in what is a rapidly changing landscape.

Please be assured we have not taken the decision lightly. We are confident that this temporary measure is the best way to protect our employees, customers and the future of the company, as well as ensuring we act responsibly in helping control the spread of the virus.

Our usual phone number, 01691 654 966, will remain available for emergency calls during this period. We will keep you informed as to any changes and let you know as soon as we are operational again.

We would like to thank all customers for their support and understanding during these turbulent times. We wish you all the best for your health and business and will be in touch in the coming weeks.

We look forward to resuming business as usual as early as is feasible.
