The new depot is based in St. Saviour, just outside of the capital, St Helier, and is open six days a week to the trade.

Local tradespeople can buy paint to order kitchens and use the company’s free design service.  

It forms part of its expansion plans to open 30 new depots in the UK and 5-10 overseas, this year,  as reported in its trading update for the first four periods of 2024.

Chief executive officer at Howdens Andrew Livingston said: “We’re very excited about bringing our Howdens depots across to the Channel Islands and are confident that our business model is absolutely right for this market.

“We know we can make a real difference in this area by building trusted relationships and supporting the local trade, providing them with exceptional quality, service and convenience that we are known for, which that sets us apart.”
