James Lister & Sons Limited, was founded in 1874 in Tipton by a local schoolteacher, James Lister, as a hardware and ironmonger shop. Although we have grown considerably since then, with more than 150 in the team, we have stayed close to our roots, still supplying various types of industrial/janitorial supplies and fluid power solutions to a very large customer base. We also offer tube manipulation and a wide variety of engineering and subcontract services. We remain a privately owned family business and the family spirit ethos and pride in the tradition of excellent customer service and honesty is a key differentiator in how we do business. We operate a large fleet of delivery vehicles from our 8 Midlands & South Wales based branches and work with customers ranging from small engineering firms to large multinational companies, and from schools and colleges to care homes. We have long term supply relationships with quality suppliers Parker Hannifin, SMC Pneumatics, Seco Tools, Kimberley Clark, Procter and Gamble, Shell Oils, Morris Oils, Rocol, VOW Office supplies & Dormer Tools
