About AWBS
Since starting out as Adrian White Building Supplies in 1988, AWBS has grown significantly to become one of the biggest suppliers of building and landscaping products in the Swindon and Oxford areas.
At AWBS Building and Landscaping Supplies we now proudly boast three branches with extensive showrooms, our own aggregate bagging facility, a fleet of specialised delivery vehicles, a dedicated landscape installation service and a 50-strong team of highly experienced and knowledgeable people.
Adrian White Building Supplies
Back in 1988, Adrian White formed Adrian White Building supplies, selling building products to trade customers in and around Oxford. When we opened our first showroom that July, Oxford Garden Centre in at South Hinksey, Oxford, we were able to offer a comprehensive range of building supplies and landscaping supplies to both trade and public customers. With fabulous displays, our customers were now able to view our ranges of building and landscaping supplies, seven days a week.
AWBS branches in Oxford, Swindon and Yarnton
Building on the success of Adrian White Building Supplies in Oxford, we opened two more conveniently located showrooms, in 2003. AWBS Landscaping and Building Supplies at Cheney Manor Garden Centre in Swindon, and Yarnton Nurseries at Sandy Lane, Yarnton. As with our builders’ merchants in Oxford, these new showrooms allowed customers to view our extensive ranges of building and landscaping supplies, including paving, fencing, aggregates and turf. Having these further two branches located within garden centres also offered the added benefit of being open seven days a week, including bank holidays.
AWBS aggregates bagging facility
In 2004, we opened our own aggregate and gravel bagging facility in Witney, allowing us to provide our customers with a vast – and unrivalled – selection of shingles, chippings, cobbles and construction sands and gravels.

We launched our website in 2005, and by 2010 we were able to offer our customers the benefits of browsing our exceptional range of building supplies and landscaping supplies, purchasing, and arranging free local delivery, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Over the last few years our website has gone from strength to strength, offering our customers even more choice of products, as well as handy calculators, news articles and ‘how to’ guides.
Our Exclusive, Value and Eco product ranges
Continuing to expand and enhance the building and landscaping supplies we offer, we’ve introduced our own Exclusive Range of natural Indian Sandstone, which includes project packs, single slabs and decorative paving circles, as well as a Value range of essential garden and landscaping products at exceptionally competitive prices. We’re also very proud to take our environmental responsibility seriously, by being a conscientious and responsible supplier, and our Eco-Range of secondary use products includes recycled construction aggregate, all sourced locally from approved suppliers.
Developing the AWBS offering
While we’re exceptionally proud of how far Adrian White Building Supplies has come, we’re not ones to sit on our laurels. We always strive to improve our offering, to give our customers even more choice and top-quality products, and we’ve increased our fleet of delivery vehicles to include specialised crane offload lorries, alongside small transit vans.
We take great pride in our people being knowledgeable and able to help with any queries our customers may have, so we provide on-going staff training to always ensure a service that’s second to none.
We look forward to welcoming you at one of our AWBS branches soon.
