Waters and Stanton

General information

Waters & Stanton began in 1973 as a partnership between Peter Waters & Jeff Stanton. Both had worked in London in the insurance industry and they decided to pool their interests in amateur radio and Hi-Fi and start up Waters & Stanton Electronics. From a small lock-up shop in those early days, progress has been steady and consistent. In the late 90s the company became a PLC and also obtained ISO registration.

Today Waters & Stanton PLC have an international presence, both importing and exporting goods worldwide. Whilst their roots in amateur radio have remained very firm and their leadership in the UK amateur radio market is unchallenged, the company has moved into other areas of electronics and communications.

The present head office is based in Hockley, the home of the company for the past 35 years. Here there is a three story office and sales facility with a large warehouse and despatch area at the rear. The company is still headed up by the original owners, Peter Waters and Jeff Stanton, and future expansion plans are in place for continued growth in both the hobby and commercial sectors of the market.
