Greenlite Group

What Greenlite Group does

Greenlite Group (legal entity: Greenlite Lighting Solutions Limited) is a UK-based commercial electrical services contractor founded in 2010 and headquartered in Blackpool, with a distribution hub in Warrington. The company provides turnkey lighting, electrical, compliance, and energy-efficiency services to multi-site retail chains and commercial enterprises across the United Kingdom, currently serving 8,000+ sites. Its core offering spans four service categories — Installation (electrical, lighting, fire, data), Maintenance (electrical, lighting, emergency, fire), Compliance (EICR, PAT testing, iComply) and Renewables (LED retrofit, EV chargers, voltage optimisation, solar via the Greenlite Solar sub-brand) — supplemented by the iAudit nationwide compliance and site-audit platform.

The business is built around a nationwide field-service model: a directly employed network of 30+ skilled electrical engineers, supported by a 16-vehicle fleet, delivers 24/7/365 planned and reactive maintenance. A 2010 Office of Fair Trading credit broker licence enables Greenlite to offer 0% interest fixed-term leasing, removing the upfront capital barrier for LED upgrades and frequently allowing lease costs to be covered by energy savings from day one. The technology stack is operational rather than analytical — the iAudit and iComply platforms digitise compliance reporting and site audits, but no proprietary AI, ML, or autonomous systems capability is disclosed. Notable certifications include ISO 9001, ISO 14001, CHAS, Safe Contractor, and Carbon Trust Green Business accreditation, which collectively support eligibility for enterprise and public-sector framework tenders.

Greenlite's revenue model blends one-time project revenue (LED retrofits, electrical installations, EV charger and solar deployments) with recurring subscription-style maintenance contracts and compliance testing services. Its go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting multi-site UK retailers, with named customers including Howdens Joinery (625 depots), Waterstones (280 stores), Theo Paphitis Retail Group (315 stores across Ryman, Robert Dyas, Boux Avenue), The Original Factory Shop (197 stores), Bensons for Beds, Unilever, Travis Perkins, Iceland, Krispy Kreme, Nandos, Marriott, Hotel Chocolat, and Moss Bros. The company is privately held, founder/management-led by Managing Director Bob Hall, with no disclosed institutional shareholders, funding rounds, or M&A activity.
