Andersons Wholesale has always been a family run business offering a friendly, personal and professional service. In the 1970s Betty and her husband were successful shop owners in Milton Keynes and in the early 1980s they moved to Norfolk and managed a busy Post Office in the village of Kenninghall. After one of their suppliers announced their retirement in 1984, Betty bought the supplier’s wholesale business and Andersons Wholesale was established. After moving to the small village of Barnham in Norfolk, Betty and her son Paul expanded the wholesale van sales business, supplying shops as far as the North Norfolk and Suffolk coast, Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire and Bedfordshire.

In the early 2000’s, as the business was rapidly expanding, Paul’s wife Sue, son Nick and Nick’s partner Michelle joined Andersons. A few years later they expanded again, this time virtually, launching their website www. andersonswholesale.co.uk.

The internet was revolutionary, -  the range could expand, new items could be offered, new suppliers could be found, and new ideas could flourish. This is where their hugely popular service of prewrapped grotto toys began and their grotto toys website www.wrappedgrottotoys.co.uk was also launched.

After training many highly skilled inhouse wrappers, Andersons quickly became the

UK’s leading suppliers of wrapped gifts, supplying garden centres, hotels, pub chains, shopping centres and visitor attractions.

Nearly 40 years after Betty started the family business, they are now based in the Norfolk town of Thetford - dubbed ‘the Norfolk Pole’ by an ITV reporter

when she filmed for a local news report at the warehouse!   The core family run values have remained - always providing great service and great products.

Paul and Sue’s other son Matt joined the business in 2015 and they now employ over 20 members of staff.

With all of the gifts wrapped in house, there is a fast turn-around time, impeccable quality control and the ability to wrap gifts to order too.  With a huge range of stock on the shelves, Andersons also offer a product sourcing service and a bespoke wrapping service as well as a huge range of greeting cards and gift wrap, filled party bags, seasonal and everyday toys, craft items, soft toys, Christmas headwear and much more! Contact them on 01842 824505 or info@andersonswholedale.co.uk to discuss your requirements or order online at either of their websites.

Andersons Wholesale was established in 1984 by Betty Anderson. Now they are a three-generation family business based in ‘The Norfolk Pole’- and one of the UK’s leading seasonal suppliers.

Cadeby Tree Trust continue to offer a comprehensive range of Cut, Potted and Pot-Grown Christmas Trees, at competitive prices for both small and large orders, with the added flexibility of deliveries to suit all your requirements. We offer all varieties including Nordmann, Norway & Blue Spruce along with Noble and Lodgepole.

Following on from a successful 2022, we continue to see customers moving from imported trees to our UK grown trees, direct from the grower. This can only be good for the industry as it allows for fresher trees, a reduced carbon footprint and flexibility. We also work extremely hard to manage our costs and they continue to increase but we are very happy to say, our prices have overall, remained static for 2023.

Our Trees are managed and harvested by our dedicated full-time experienced plantation staff to ensure even growth and attractive appearance. Our plantations continue to be our showcase and we are pleased to be able to offer you our fantastic British Grown Trees. Please contact us to arrange a plantation visit.

The Christmas Cabin provides the market leading range of stands and accessories for real Christmas trees from harvest to home.

We have worked extremely hard to bring prices down this year, which has been helped by the reduced freight rates. The labour cost increases have been offset against us streamlining manufacturing costs meaning static or reduced prices across all products.

Our unique, easy to use Quick Stand range of stands continue to be a topselling choice for both consumer sales and point-of-sale display.

Cinco stands remain the leading brand worldwide, with many consumer awards

to their name and a record of proven sales. We offer an exceptional range of premium stands, pedal operated stands from Easy-Lock Max and Krinner and some striking contemporary designs from Tree Nest. We are delighted to be able to offer a Cast Iron range again this year, back by popular demand. As a leading supplier of netting and wrapping products for real trees, we continue to look for the eco-friendly alternatives to traditional polyester netting. Our award-winning VacuBio-

Netmade from corn-starch, is still the best alternative.

An eye-catching real tree display is an essential part of your Christmas offer. We supply a very wide range of commercial display brackets and stands to help you create outstanding displays. If you need help choosing the best solution for your site, do contact one of our experienced team who will be pleased to help.
