In-Stock

Established in 1974 to service the rapidly growing Offshore Oil Industry the original aim of the company was to supply Disposable products as this was identified as a potentially high usage requirement for the Oil Industry.

To service the Oil Industry Instock has had to greatly expand the range of products stocked and coping with the demands of the Offshore Oil Industry requires a very high level of service.

Our Purchasing department have a wide range of experience in sourcing and obtaining items to satisfy the demands of our customers.  

Instock Branches
A branch was opened in Inverness in 1979, which allowed Onshore expansion into the Highlands and allowed us to supply the Oil Industry Fabrication Yards at Ardersier and Kishorn.

In 1995 the Livingston branch opened and this allowed us to target the large population areas in Scotland with easy access to both Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Our Showrooms
We were pleased to announce the opening on 1st March 2009 of our new showroom facility at Livingston, the largest of its type in Scotland.

We have 2000 square feet of catering showroom exhibiting the latest range of both heavy and light equipment for commercial kitchens.  We also have on display a large variety of kitchenware, crockery, tabletop, glassware, cutlery and bar supplies.

Here you will find on display a range of products from industry leading brands together with both existing and new ranges of crockery and glassware. Over a coffee, and in the comfort of our new facility, we can discuss your kitchen design requirements using CAD tools and then arrange the full fit out from scratch.  We also offer a range of financing options that are available to assist in one-off fit out projects or individual purchases of equipment.

On wide screen displays we can show you the full breadth and depth of products supplied by our key supplier partners so if it’s not physically on display you can still see it and we can source it for you.

Open to the public Monday to Friday, we will be constantly offering recession busting special deals, discount vouchers for showroom visitors, prize raffles and wine tasting evenings as part of our marketing activity.  Come and visit us and see the benefits of Scotland's largest catering showroom.
