About Lord Wholesale Co
Our History
Lord Wholesale Co has been supplying the trade since 1974.
It all began when Clive Lord and his wife Olga entered the hosiery trade, starting out by selling socks on market stalls across the North West.
What began as a small family business soon grew. After years of travelling around the country selling their products, Clive and Olga opened several retail outlets and gradually expanded their range beyond socks into nightwear, underwear and other essential clothing lines.
With their growing product knowledge, strong reputation and years of experience in retail, moving into wholesale was the natural next step.
The business initially operated from the second floor of an old mill. As the customer base continued to grow, Lord Wholesale quickly outgrew those premises and moved on to a much larger operation.
Where We Are Today
Today, Lord Wholesale Co is based in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, ideally positioned between Manchester and Leeds and only a short distance from Junction 20 of the M62.
Our large modern warehouse covers more than 15,000 square feet and is packed with an extensive range of wholesale products including nightwear, underwear, socks, tights and hosiery, hats, scarves, gloves, aprons, tabards, accessories, seasonal ranges, clearance stock and much more.
Customers often describe our warehouse as an “Aladdin’s Cave” because of the sheer variety of stock available.
Everything shown on our website forms part of the range we sell through our warehouse, subject to current stock availability.
