Fasco Extra opened its doors in Stirling, selling a range of products from power tools to Dr Martens boots, priced from 50p to £2,000.
The new store stocks Fasco-branded boots and gloves alongside workwear and clothing brands such as Helly Hansen, Regatta and Dickies.
John Scott (chief executive of Scott Group) said a six-figure sum has been invested in Fasco Extra. Although the first store is on Springkerse Industrial Estate, Scott does not rule out high-street branches being opened in the future.
John Scott added: ""We have high expectations for Fasco Extra and a pretty open mind. Stirling is the test and if it's successful, we'll replicate the model. There could be a number of stores across Scotland and England.""
Fasco sells products to all tradesmen, such as plumbers and electricians, and Scott said he does not know of any rivals, including B&Q and Screwfix, which offer as comprehensive a range. ""There isn't anyone else who sells it all,"" he said.
So, If you are in the area, please come along to Unit 2, 10 Munro Road, Springkerse Eastate, Stirling FK7 7UU. Open from Monday - Saturday, 7:30 am - 5:30 pm
