A popular family-run business is proudly celebrating 55 years of successful trading. 

Founded in 1969 as 'Haycock and Bennett', Bennetts Bathrooms has grown significantly from its early days in metal engineering to become a leading name in bathroom design and retail. 

Haycock and Bennett was established by Ron Haycock and John Bennett in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter. 

The business originally focused on producing metal pressings for the motor industry. 

In 1980, the company relocated to Bromsgrove to mark the start of a new era. 

A spokesperson for the business said: "While still engaged in motor trade engineering, Bennetts expanded into the bathroom sector, manufacturing key metal components for Armitage Shanks, the well-known bathroom product manufacturer.

"The strategic partnership grew stronger when Armitage Shanks opened a showroom at Bennetts Bathrooms, displaying sanitary ware and laying the foundation for Bennetts’ entry into the bathroom retail market."

In 1984, Ron Haycock retired, so John Bennett's son, Andrew, joined the business. 

He brought fresh ideas and energy with the new leadership direction culminating in Bennetts Bathrooms' relocation in 1992 to its current Sherwood Road site. 

The building features an expanded showroom with a wide selection of leading bathroom brands. 

The move also marked the company's shift from manufacturing to retail by focusing on quality bathroom design. 

Bennetts Bathrooms is now a leading brand in the local market offering cutting-edge 3D design services and working with more than 20 trusted suppliers. 

The business said: "We pride ourselves on providing a full bathroom fitting service through five reliable contractors ensuring seamless installation and comprehensive customer support.

"As Bennetts Bathrooms celebrates 55 years of excellence, we remain committed to adapting to the latest trends and delivering high-quality bathroom solutions for every customer."
