Our History

WR Christie & Co was established in 1954 by WR Christie and has evolved into an organisation, which provides efficient and affordable solutions for both the public and the private sector. Starting out importing Aga & Esse stoves from Scotland until 1961 when we diversified into heating and cooling products from the Friedrich company in San Diego, USA.

 

In 1988 we travelled to the Far East and established ties with the Auromaster/York aircon manufacturing group and finally in 1994 we added Fujitsu General product to our range. The Company has also developed ties with numerous government and local authorities as well as major companies in the private sector, never losing sight of small business requirements and ensuring first rate service at all times.

 

Commitment and service to the customer is the cornerstone of our operational philosophy enabling us to understand and satisfy customer needs allowing them to build relationship that stand the test of time. It is the financial strength and resources of the WR Christie & Co together with our proactive approach to customer satisfaction that sets us ahead of the pack.

 

WR. Christie & Co is well equipped to continue into the 21st Century with expectations of controlled growth. For nearly 70 years W.R. Christie & Co has continually transformed in all areas of business strategy expanding our core business from climate controlled solutions into property, media and the relief shelter industry.

 

We are confident that this dynamic goal setting in our company will enhance our future prospects by delivering customer satisfaction in all sectors of our challenging and ever changing market.

 

Thank you to everyone for the loyal support.
