We’ve delivered another strong set of results for the year ending 30 September 2025, with revenue up 12% to £1.1bn – significantly outperforming the wider market.
Despite continued challenging trading conditions across the construction sector, we’ve grown our market share to 14.8%, well ahead of modest market growth of around 1.2%. This performance reflects the strength of our long‑term investment strategy, our customer‑first approach and our locally empowered branch model.

Growth during the year was driven by strong organic performance across our established branches, continued development of newer locations and the opening of seven new branches, taking our network to 139 branches nationwide. We’ve also continued to invest in specialist capabilities, including heating and ventilation through Oceanair, alongside further development of our hire offer.
Our results are driven by consistently high levels of customer service, breadth and availability of product range, and fast, reliable local delivery. We’ve continued to invest in our people, our infrastructure and our customer offer, while maintaining the local expertise that sets MKM apart.
Our customer offer continued to evolve, including the launch of shopping through the MKM app (image below), building on existing account management functionality to make ordering easier and strengthen day‑to‑day engagement with our customers.

While the external environment remains uncertain, underpinned by inflationary pressures and wider geopolitical factors, we remain well positioned for the future. With a strong balance sheet, continued investment in our branch network and a clear focus on supporting customers through local service, we’re well placed to continue outperforming the market and winning share.
Kate Tinsley, CEO of MKM Building Supplies, said:
“MKM delivered a strong performance in 2025, continuing to outperform the market and growing both revenue and profitability despite ongoing challenging conditions. We opened seven new branches during the year and continued to invest in our network, our people and our customer offer, while maintaining the high levels of service and product availability that set MKM apart.”
