The modern Axminster store is today very different from the business that first began as a small shop in Chard Street. However, the ethos of the company is much the same with knowledgeable and experienced staff dedicated to providing excellent customer service.
Craig Steele (store manager) has over 20 years of experience in the tool trade and brings a wealth of knowledge to Axminster Tool Centre. Initially he trained as a saw doctor repairing, sharpening and grinding all types of blades and tooling used in the trade. After 5 years Craig moved into tooling and machinery sales mostly in the field of woodworking but also in the supply of saws to engineering and window industries. Craig firmly believes in quality products supported by the very best customer and after sales service, and is keen to pass this ethos on to all who work with him.
