Family owned and managed since its launch in 1980, Rapid Industrial Fasteners has joined the Chamber of Commerce to build on its strong service reputation as a trusted supplier to critical industries such as healthcare and energy in the UK and Europe.
The Platinum Group is the Black Country Chamber of Commerce's exclusive platform which sees senior leaders come together to tackle the challenges which impact their organisation and to explore opportunities to improve the region's prospects.
Based in Stour Vale Road, Lye, Stourbridge, Rapid Industrial Fasteners can offer same day deliveries to the West Midlands and Worcestershire using its fleet of vehicles, while nationwide deliveries are made next-day.
The company maintains rigorous quality standards by holding ISO 9001 certification and utilises its own manufacturing facilities to produce bespoke fasteners and turned parts in line with customer drawings and individual specifications.
Richard White, Managing Director of Rapid Industrial Fasteners, said: "As a Stourbridge-based business with 45 years of expertise in fastener manufacturing and distribution, Rapid Industrial Fasteners is pleased to join the Black Country Chamber of Commerce.
"As we continue to expand our operations and enhance our service offering from our modern and purpose-designed warehouse and office facility, we see huge value in using Platinum Group membership to network while sharing ideas and best practice with businesses with similar outlooks and values.
"Working with the Chamber will align with our goals as a successful family business which holds the unique position of being a manufacturer and distributor of all fasteners and fixings."
Black Country Chamber of Commerce head of premium membership, Gail Arnold added: "We are delighted to welcome Rapid Industrial Fasteners to the Platinum Group, where we are sure they will add value through their new membership.
"The Platinum Group benefits from the contribution of its member businesses, who take advantage of regular meetings and confidential peer to peer discussions which allow strategic leaders to expand their networks, tackle business challenges and work together to promote the growth of the economy locally and nationally.
