Viessman partners with APP Plumbing and Heating to expand distribution.

Today, Viessmann Climate Solutions has forged a partnership with the leading national distributor, APP Plumbing and Heating. This alliance brings immediate benefits to independent merchants, as they gain wide-scale access to Viessmann's complete portfolio, including gas boilers, heat pumps, and commercial heating solutions. The partnership also offers nationwide next-day delivery and modern fulfilment services, enhancing merchants' flexibility to scale and better serve their customers.

“Viessmann is a valuable addition to our expanding portfolio," says Shane Knight, Commercial Director at APP Plumbing and Heating. "Having previously worked with Viessmann, I deeply understand their products and the people behind them, making this partnership extra special. After all, we are a people-centric business that sells excellent products.”

APP Plumbing and Heating is renowned for its efficient service and innovative approach to stock management. Their deep-rooted knowledge of the heating and plumbing sector sets them apart, providing ambitious independent merchants with exceptional support and price stability. Shane concluded, "We view this partnership as a win-win for everyone involved, but most importantly, for our customers."

Ian Brookes, Head of Merchant Sales at Viessmann Climate Solutions, added, "APP Plumbing and Heating are a very professional organisation, with a strong sales team, and lots of experience, making them a good match for us. This is a great opportunity to add an additional channel that can offer our customers an alternative premium service, should they wish. In APP Plumbing and Heating, not only do we have a distribution partner for our residential offering but also now for our commercial heating products, which is tremendous."
