What William Wilson is
William Wilson is Scotland's leading regional plumbing, heating, bathroom and renewable-energy trade merchant, trading "from Ayr to Orkney". Most of its trade-counter branches also carry a bathroom showroom with a free CAD/3D design service, all under one fascia.
Price tier: Mid-market
Ownership: Trades as William Wilson Ltd, a brand within Wolseley UK, which is wholly owned by the private-equity firm Clayton, Dubilier & Rice following its acquisition of Wolseley UK from Ferguson plc in 2021.
Formats: Trade-counter branches on industrial and trade estates, most with a co-located bathroom showroom and the rest trade counter only. All directly operated with no franchising. A 30-day trade credit account and an online trading portal for account holders run alongside the estate.
Growth: Growth has come mainly through acquisition, including Highland Plumbing and Heating Supplies in Tain, which extended coverage into the far north and retains its own identity.
