Multi-Category Distribution & Supply Partner
for Brands and Retailers

We source, stock and supply high-quality products across multiple sectors, giving brands controlled retail expansion and giving independent stores a reliable procurement partner.

Serving independent retailers and specialist channels across the UK.

Who is Foundry Labs?

Founded in 2022 by David Randell. After seeing independent shops struggle to get reliable stock, Foundry Labs was built to fix one thing, uncertainty. Retailers couldn’t trust wholesalers, brands couldn’t control pricing, and stock flow was unstable. We stepped in to create a clean, structured procurement and distribution model built for independent retailers and specialist operators across the UK.

Today, we work directly with trusted UK and EU manufacturers and established brand partners, moving verified products through our Leicester-based warehouse with fast turnaround and consistent supply. The goal stays the same: stable pricing, predictable stock flow, and clear communication at every step.

Our Approuch to procurement

We keep procurement simple, controlled and transparent.
Every product we supply is vetted for quality, demand and retail suitability, then handled through our own warehouse, not a chain of unreliable middlemen.
The supply chain stays tight, margins stay protected, and you always know where your stock is and when it lands.

How We Deliver Value

We remove the delays, instability and guesswork that normally sit between suppliers and retailers.
By managing sourcing, warehousing and distribution under one controlled structure, we keep inventory moving at the right speed, with predictable replenishment and no flooded markets or price-war chaos.
Clients stay because their supply becomes stable — and their headaches disappear.

Clients we work with

We support independent retailers, detailing studios, grooming shops, specialist stores, technical repair businesses and controlled online operators.
We also work directly with UK and international brands looking for structured retail and trade distribution.

Our network spans multiple categories, giving us the flexibility to source, stock and distribute across a wide range of product types with ease.

Meet Our Founder

David built Foundry Labs out of necessity, not ambition.

After years of working with independent retailers and trade businesses, he kept seeing the same problem repeat itself - good shops were struggling to get reliable stock, while brands were losing control of their pricing and market presence due to weak, inconsistent wholesalers.

Margins were unstable. Supply was unpredictable. Stores were constantly firefighting instead of growing.

David saw an opportunity to fix the gap.

Foundry Labs was created to give both sides something the market lacked — a structured, professional procurement and distribution partner that actually protects margins, ensures product integrity, and provides stable, predictable supply.

What started as a small operation helping a handful of local retailers has grown into a multi-category distribution network serving stores across the UK.

The mission hasn’t changed:

Cut out noise.
Cut out inconsistency.
Give retailers the stock they need,
and give brands a partner they can trust.
