About Us

Company History:

Hydraulic Hose Distributors (HHD) was formed in 2010. Originally starting out as a supplier for Hose Technology Ltd, for it's OEM customers, interest quickly began to grow from within the hydraulic industry due to the high quality products on offer.

Due to the increased level of interest and sales in HHD, Joel joined the team in early 2012 to handle sales and to manage the growth of the company.
