3WM Supplies help local businesses donate to Newark Foodbank when buying essential supplies
Newark-based office supply experts, 3WM Supplies, are donating 2% of all income received from local customers to Newark Foodbank.
The providers of over 100,000 essential business supplies, already donate a significant consignment of goods to the Foodbank every month, including toilet rolls, detergents, handwash and laundry supplies.
Now, they are extending their partnership with the Foodbank, by offering their local customers the opportunity to support the charity whenever they purchase the supplies they need.
“It’s easy for businesses to help – you buy, we give! We’ll donate 2% of everything we receive from local businesses to the fabulous work Newark Foodbank does supporting local families, and there’s so much more to it than food!” says Rob Turner, Managing Director of 3WM Supplies.
Established in 2011, Newark Foodbank helps people in crisis in Newark, Tuxford and wider Nottinghamshire, with free access to food and other household essentials.
In 2023 alone, the charity distributed 56 tonnes of donated food and products to over 3,000 adults and 1,500 children in the local area.
“We rely on the generosity of local businesses and individuals and the regular donations from 3WM Supplies make a big difference. The pledge to donate from the sales of supplies to local businesses is fantastic and will help many local people” says Stephen Charnock BEM, Chair of Trustees of Newark Foodbank.
Trusted by hundreds of businesses across Newark, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, South Yorkshire and beyond, 3WM Supplies provide stationery, office furniture, technology, cleaning/janitorial products and many other essential items which businesses need.
Through a sophisticated network of state-of-the-art fulfilment centres, they dispatch regular supplies to organisations such as lawyers, accountants, offices, manufacturers, retailers, local authorities, hospitality and other businesses across the UK.
“We’ve been established since 2008 and businesses choose us for our huge range, friendly service, dependability and excellent prices. It’s saddening to think that 1-in-5 people in the UK still live below the poverty line and as a progressive business we think this a way we can truly support our local community” adds Rob.
3WM Supplies’ regular donations of essential supplies directly helps up to 450 families every month. With the 2% of money received through sales to local businesses, 3WM Supplies donates essential goods requested by the foodbank.
In addition, 3WM Supplies is looking to work directly with other local companies and organisations to build coordinated and dependable donations for the foodbank and ask interested businesses to contact them.
3WM Supplies provides businesses with a range of products including leading brands and options to suit all budgets. Their webstore enables true 24/7 purchasing and next working day delivery on the majority of products.
“Just like our ISO accreditations for quality and environmental management, corporate responsibility is something we take very seriously. And, we’re hopeful we can make it easy for our customers too, so that whenever they source the supplies they need, they can also support our local community” concludes Rob.
