Sheldons Dairy and Pet Supplies

With the help of George Sherman the business grew to eventually twelve rounds delivering to approximately 4,000 customers so more space was needed and the land on Hollow Lane became the garage to park the vans. During the 1980's home delivery of newspapers and magazines were added to the daily deliveries offering a seven day a week service.With the rise of the supermarket David countered the competition with an ever expanding range from delivering dairy products to winter fuels, bedding plants, compost, fertilizers, bottled mineral water, fruit juices and household goods. With sons Chris and John and son in law Steve, David slowly retired leaving the day to day running to them ably assisted by Pat with over 40 years working for the company and Diane.Currently we operate 16 rounds delivering to 5,500 customers with 23 hard working employees (Graeme Wood - 42 years service) from our premises on Parkgate Industrial Estate, as we out grew Thorneyholme Drive and Hollow Lane sites 17 years ago. Delivery expanded from Knutsford and Mobberley to Wilmslow, Alderley Edge, Chelford and surrounding villages then up to Lymm and surrounding villages.
