Green Olive Firewood begins an exciting new chapter
GTN Xtra Promotion

Green Olive Firewood is pleased to announce that the brand has been acquired by The Log Club Ltd, part of the wider TEM Group of companies.

 

This marks an exciting new chapter for one of the UK's leading firewood brands, creating one of the country's largest manufacturers of British kiln dried firewood.

 

For customers and retail partners, it is very much business as usual.

 

The existing management team remains in place, now supported by significant new investment, providing a strong platform for continued growth, innovation and customer service.

 

Following this investment, we now operate from a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Cheshire and are proud to be the UK's largest manufacturer of British kiln dried logs and kindling. This increased capacity enables us to support our growing customer base with reliable, year-round supply.

 

The investment has also enabled the launch of our new Freedom British Firewood value range, broadening our offering with high-quality British kiln dried logs and kindling at even more competitive price points. By offering customers greater choice across both premium and value ranges, we are strengthening our market position and supporting our strategy to grow market share while helping retailers meet consumer demand in an increasingly value-conscious market.

 

Our wood is dried completely off-grid using renewable energy and primarily solar power, delivering a secure, sustainable and dependable manufacturing process.

 

Importantly, all existing customer agreements, trading relationships and commercial terms remain unchanged. Customers can continue to order with confidence, knowing they will receive the same trusted products, the same account management and the same high levels of service they expect from Green Olive Firewood.

 

Management Statement

"This investment marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Green Olive Firewood. With enhanced manufacturing capability, long-term investment and one of the UK's most advanced firewood production facilities, we are better placed than ever to support our customers.

The launch of our new Freedom British Firewood value range further strengthens our offering, enabling us to provide exceptional British-made products across a wider range of price points while supporting our retail partners in an increasingly competitive marketplace.

Our commitment remains unchanged. We will continue supplying high-quality British products, investing in innovation and delivering the dependable service our customers rely on."

 

Green Olive Firewood looks forward to continuing to support retailers, merchants, hospitality businesses, campsites and consumers across the UK with British-made products, dependable supply and continued investment in quality, innovation and service.

 

For further information, customers should contact their usual Green Olive Firewood representative.
