TRUSTED DEVELOPER, DISTRIBUTOR & BUILDER OF INNOVATIVE, QUALITY BRANDS

MISSION STATEMENT

At Storm, our mission is to provide exceptional home and garden products that exceed our customers’ expectations. We are committed to building strong, long-lasting relationships with our retail partners, offering innovative and high-quality products, and providing world-class customer service. Our focus on these strengths has allowed us to grow into a trusted and reputable company in the industry, and we strive to continue to offer the best products and services to our customers.

STORM -WHERE DID IT ALL BEGIN?

Storm Distribution started out as a small family run company in 2011.  We have very quickly grown to a team of dedicated core employees who all strive for one thing – giving the customer the best experience when purchasing a product sourced, developed and distributed by Storm Distribution.

STORM – OUR GROWTH

Our business was initially developed around the Coolaroo brand, leaders in the development of shade fabric. Our partnership with them allowed us to introduce the Coolaroo Shade sail and umbrella to the South African market. We have since grown exponentially and our list of brands now incorporates fencing, irrigation, pool products and more.

Our philosophy of offering the best quality product to the consumer has served us well as we have expanded our range of trusted brands to the likes of Cellfast, Rainbird, Microjet and Prosperplast to retailers nationwide.

Growing trusted relationships with our retailers has always been an important focus for Storm. We have built up an impressive network of retail outlets to which we supply – the likes of Builders Warehouse, Leroy Merlin, Chamberlains, BUCO and Takealot and many other smaller nurseries and hardware stores.

STORM – OUR STRENGTHS

Our relationship with retailers and customers alike extends way beyond simply providing a quality product.

Our core strength lies in the relationships that we have built over time with the retail chains, who know that we are as concerned about their business and improving our operating efficiencies to them, as we are about our own business. The retailers can trust that they will receive superior after-sales service such as:

  • product optimisation studies at a store-by-store level to ensure success.
  • POS development, that provides the customer with pertinent information, allowing them to make an educated purchasing decision,
  • Product training
  • Regular communication at a head office level
  • Regular store visits by relationship managers

Retailers trust that we have their best interests at heart.

And finally, our strength also lies in our drive to constantly find new, innovative products to offer the South African consumers, keeping them abreast of the latest in world-wide trends. We also take pride in our ability to improve the quality, variety and price offerings of products currently offered in the market.

STORM – OUR STRUCTURE AND PEOPLE

We have a dynamic team who are constantly looking to streamline our business and improve the way in which we operate, while offering our retail stores and customers the best possible service.

We maintain our edge by empowering our team to work with integrity, responsibility, accountability and through offering continuous support and development opportunities to further their skills and careers. We also operate with open door policies; management is always available to support our people.

Our team is split between Johannesburg headed by our CEO and Cape Town headed by our Directors, with an office and small warehouse in each area. Relationship managers are responsible for looking after each individual region, so that the whole of South Africa is covered.

We rely on so many others to deliver the products and services that we pride ourselves on. We work closely with our warehousing colleagues, DSV, to ensure smooth deliveries to stores, on a continuous basis. We also work closely with Store managers and their retail staff to build solid relationships and assist wherever possible.

STORM – CUSTOMER IS KING

If sourcing innovative, quality products is of importance to us, backing up our products with excellent customer service is our greater measure of success. We are constantly striving for new ways to educate, inform and assist consumers in their purchase process.

We know how important it is to earn the customers trust and we are thus committed to providing excellent world class customer service with professionalism, care and efficiency, in order to build these relationships. With this goal in mind, STORM offers a direct line to a knowledgeable Storm representative, who WILL respond to your query.

These are the deliverables that we at STORM constantly strive for, and in partnership with our suppliers and retailers, we believe that we can achieve them, for the benefit of our customers.
