Ancol was established back in 1971 by Ann and Colin Lane, who after identifying a gap in the flourishing pet accessories market seized the opportunity to start up a family business.
With the support of component suppliers and customers alike the business grew rapidly, quadrupling its workforce of three in the first year alone and outgrowing its premises with impressive frequency.
However, during this extended growth period the family were always careful to keep their promise to deliver exceptional service, quality and reliability at all times, a belief that's rigorously upheld to this very day by the next generation.
Almost 40 years and many millions of products sold later, Ancol continues to grow with the business now boasting a 100-strong workforce and over 70,000ft of warehousing.
Ancol's ever expanding facilities
Ancol originally set up a base of operations in Walsall during the early seventies, but as the demand for products grew, so did the need for additional space.
So after only 12 months, the company relocated into larger premises in 1972, which for 11 prosperous years housed an ever expanding workforce and product range.
Having outgrown the facilities once again, the company moved to the present site in 1983, and following countless improvements and extensions now boasts 70,000ft of warehousing and an impressive 4000 pallet capacity.
From day one Ancol have consistently invested in the company's infrastructure and production methods to guarantee exceptional service levels at all times.
This unwavering pursuit for excellence continues to this day, with the very latest cutting-edge technology such as voice picking and automatic stock control systems being employed by the business to ensure lead times and stock availability is unrivalled.
