YORKSHIRE-based golf equipment retailer Snainton Golf has opened another outlet, bringing its total to 15.
The expanding business has added a shop at the Mid Yorkshire Golf Club at Darrington near Pontefract to its growing portfolio.
At the same time it is investing in state-of-the-art high tech teaching facilities and building a new warehouse at its headquarters at the Snainton Golf Centre, near Scarborough.
The business has witnessed growth since golf professional John Hinchliffe took over the dilapidated golf driving range in a field in the North Yorkshire village in 1996.
As well as building the range into a regional coaching centre he diversified the business by introducing a retail arm selling discounted top-of-the-range equipment and clothing through its superstores and shops in Yorkshire and the north.
It also reaches across the UK and Europe through its rapidly growing online store, SnaintonGolf.co.uk.
