About The Employer

Began by the Harlow family in 1927 as an agricultural manufacturing business for more than 90 years Harlow has been successfully trading within the timber supply & manufacturing industry. Today the group is made up of divisions & companies that encompass timber supply, engineered timber along with agricultural manufacturing divisions that continue to design, manufacture and install buildings including poultry houses and stables. The Harlow Timber Merchant network supplies timber and associated products to both trade and retail customers from is network of branches in the midlands. Having acquired H&S Timber Systems in 2001 Harlow's timber manufacturing base diversified further as engineered timber products such as roof trusses & engineered joists were added to the companies portfolio. The businesses growth was considerable and today Harlow Timber Systems (or HTS) operates from four sites across the country. Harlow has also taken the step of establishing an e commerce string to it's bow that now offers timber and associated products on a national basis through it's digital platform. The Harlow Timber Group was in family ownership until the first quarter of 2022 when the business was placed into an Employee Ownership Trust. The circumstances of the arrangement mean that the Harlow family will remain with an active input into the business for some years to come and the family ethics that the business was founded upon will continue to be a central part of Harlow's future.
