Competition Supplies Ltd

General information

Competition Supplies was formed in 2009 when a major re-structuring at motorsport specialists GPR led them to refocus on race wear leaving a number of former staff with time on their hands and some top brands needing a parts focused distribution channel. So begging a few square feet of office and storage space from Aston Martin specialists Rex J Woodgate’s, Competition Supplies was established in a corner of Unit 36 Silverstone Circuit. The enthusiasm and support we received from suppliers and customers alike was staggering including a credit line from top US clutch and brake manufacturer Tilton Engineering, without which we would never have got off the ground. We plugged in the phone and it started ringing, because we invested in stock we could sell it. It seemed that people liked how we did things and customers who were coming to us for Tilton and Lifeline products kept asking for additional items so, as we could afford them, we added them to the range. Despite filling every available spare inch of Unit 36 with parts, by 2012 it was clear we needed more space so when Unit 40 a few doors down became available we snapped it up. By 2014 it was becoming clear we had outgrown that too so another move to our current home at Unit 17 ensued which has allowed us to both increase stock levels & offer a much larger retail area. Our product range has steadily grown to that you see displayed within the website and catalogue.
