Established in 1960, Minoli is one of the UK’s original tile importers and distributors. Our goal is simply to source and supply the most beautiful indoor and outdoor floor and wall porcelain tiles, and to offer our customers a level of service that’s considered second to none.

Whilst many of our values remain true to those on which the firm was founded, we’re forward thinking and focused on continued growth in terms of our expanding product portfolio, our premises and facilities, our vehicle fleet and the size of our team.

Since marking the company’s 60th anniversary in 2020, we’ve continued to invest in and advance our capabilities. We’ve opened our new factory outlet, our Oxford site has doubled in size and our stockholding has reached near £3m in net cost value stock.

Between our Oxfordshire headquarters and London showroom our team extends to over 40 people and we now run 11 purpose-built trucks and numerous vans as we continually increase our delivery capacity, whilst striving to improve efficiency and minimise our environmental impact.

Once you see beyond the surface, you’ll find there’s more to Minoli than might first meet the eye.

Warehouse

Our warehouse facilities are specifically designed for the storage of porcelain, ceramic and mosaic tiles, to accommodate a vast number of ranges in very large quantities. The warehouses are laid out over an impressive 32,000 square feet containing approaching £4 million in net cost value stock.

All stock management is computer controlled, making picking more efficient and helping us forecast for future ordering. The specially designed high-level racking makes for quick and simple access by our fully trained warehouse team.

It is here that the Minoli team also take care of assembling and packaging orders for ease of handling and dispersal at the point of delivery. All the required materials for specific jobs can be palletised together and professionally labelled with client branding and job references for ease of selection and application.

It is the ability of Minoli to not only hold stock, but to also dispatch it quickly and efficiently, that sets us apart.

Fleet

Minoli have continuously invested in our delivery fleet and improved our overall distribution resources to keep pace with the growing demand for our ever-expanding product portfolio.

2021 will see the delivery of another two of the specially built 16t trucks. Based on a DAF chassis cab with upgraded running gear, and fitted with a bespoke body shell manufactured specifically for Minoli, these latest trucks will capably manage an 8,500 KGs payload.

With a 1,500 KGs tail lift, live satellite vehicle tracking, on-board reversing and all-round safety cameras, and aerodynamic bodywork, these custom-built vehicles represent the state of the art in the industry.

With a further £500k investment due, two further large capacity, ultra-efficient trucks are in production for delivery in 2022, to accompany the recently added new flat-bed truck. The Minoli fleet will then comprise 14 DAF Trucks, 3 Fiat Ducato Vans and a further 5 support vehicles, that will give a daily delivery capacity in excess of 100,000 KGs, all on vehicles specifically designed to meet our needs and those of our clients.

Our regular investment in upgrading to larger capacity and more fuel-efficient vehicles also supports our policy of reducing our environmental impact and complying with the clean air zone schemes in place in London and other major conurbations across the UK.

For corporate clients, operating in prestige fields, such as motor manufacturers and developers, working with Minoli ensures that when deliveries are made, the tiles and accessories arrive in a corporate liveried truck, by a uniformed, Minoli-employed driver, with the product and client knowledge to provide a truly professional and personal service.
