About Us

Machine Mart first opened its doors in Altrincham, Manchester. Selling the range of Clarke products.

Our first catalogue - 32 page publication featuring generators, power washers, compressors, garage equipment, pumps and power tools.

As we grew we needed bigger premises so we put down roots in Nottingham for our growing Head Office support function, National Parts department and Service centre and another superstore.

Ten years on from our first store opening, Middlesbrough was added to our portfolio, bringing the store count to 23.

Opened our 43rd store in Barnsley and launched the Machine Mart website - reaching out to even more customers!

Saw the introduction of the Machine Mart Gift card – perfect for when you can’t quite decide on the right tool for Dad’s birthday, or that perfect Christmas gift!

Store number 58 opened its doors in Wigan.

We introduced our Click & Collect service, bringing even more convenience for our customers!

MMXtra introduced - in addition to over 6000 catalogue lines, the XTRA section of the Machine Mart website now includes a further 11,000 specialist hard to find tools for just about any application.
