Red Parrot

Red Parrot, professional business supplies in Essex and Suffolk

Red Parrot is a supplier of everyday business supplies for companies operating in Essex and Suffolk. Its catalogue brings together hygiene, cleaning, catering, work protection and site supplies, with the aim of letting customers consolidate into a single trade account what they previously split across several suppliers. The company notes that most of its customers came to them running three or four supplier accounts and that one supplier means one delivery, one invoice and one number to call.

Trade account and service terms

The firm offers the option of opening a trade account to obtain agreed pricing on regular lines. For larger volume orders, it handles quote enquiries by phone. Online, delivery is free on orders over £75 to selected postcodes and orders placed before 14:00 are dispatched the same day, also subject to certain postcodes. It also allows free Click & Collect from its Colchester branch.
