Barry Dibble launches Dibble Optical Supplies

Breitfeld & Schliekert (B&S), the respected European name in optical accessories, has appointed Dibble Optical Supplies to represent the company in the UK and Eire.

“B&S and its product range are greatly respected internationally. Having been involved with the UK distribution for several years I am delighted to take on the supply as an independent company,” said Barry Dibble.

Dibble continued, “Dibble Optical Supplies has been borne from a desire to serve the UK market with a friendly service from a knowledgeable team who understand the competitive demands of modern practice.”

B&S, are based near Frankfurt, and was founded more than 80 years ago and is now Europe’s leading supplier of quality optical consumables, tooling and small machinery for opticians and ophthalmic laboratories.

“The term “quality products” is probably one of the most over-used phrases in marketing but the B&S company ethos is built around those two words. It is a guarantee,  reinforced by a ten year warranty on many products,” added Barry.

B&S supplies thousands of items for all aspects of the optical retail and lab businesses. The comprehensive Blue Catalogue focuses on the workshop and dispensing functions. The Yellow “shoptic” Catalogue brings consumer-related prescription sports frames and swim wear, reading spectacles, cleaning products and safety eyewear.

Based in Kent, Dibble Optical Supplies holds hundreds of B&S products in stock for same-day despatch on orders received by 3:30pm. Operations manager for Dibble Optical Supplies is Jackie Smith, well known to many existing B&S customers.
