π£ After 55 years of trading, OBM will close its doors for the final time later this year. Founded by John Sparrow in 1971, OBM has proudly served the builders and local communities of Sevenoaks and Ashford in Kent. This has been a very difficult decision for the family owners, but escalating costs and the continued downturn in the construction industry have led us to this conclusion. The branches will continue trading until a final closing date, expected to be the 30th November 2026.
To all our customers, past and present, thank you for your support throughout our journey. We could not have done it without you.
In the meantime, weβre still here. Our closing-down sale starts today, with savings of up to 30% across selected categories. Keep an eye on our socials and website for deals and flash sales.
Thanks again from the OBM team.
