Group Profile

B B Price Limited was founded, in 1875, by the Great Grandfather of the current directors. This family business was originally engaged in the nail making industry which proliferated in Halesowen before the turn of the century.

Gradually, as the hand made nail trade declined, the business diversified in to the MOD, Admiralty and building industries which were the mainstay of the company's production up to the second World War.

During the 1940's the business diversified again into specialised galvanised steelworks for the overhead line electricity and telecommunications industries, which still represent the bulk of the companies production today.

B B Price Ltd no longer occupies the factory site from which the business started in 1875. It's multi levelled floors impeded the efficient running of the manufacturing departments.

B B Price Ltd acquired B Birks and Co Ltd of Cradley Heath, also in the West Midlands, in January 2000, and relocated its Head Office there shortly afterwards.
The B B Price Group now consists of 4 sites, 2 manufacturing, 1 steel stockholder and 1 warehouse and distribution centre. All four sites are within a 3 mile radius of each other.

The total area of all sites is approximately 24,285 square metres.
