Inspired Lighting Ltd. is a UK-based B2B wholesale lighting distributor founded in 2006 and headquartered in Heywood, Greater Manchester. The company supplies high street retailers, trade customers (electricians, interior designers, commercial buyers), and end users through a stockist network and a trade-account e-commerce platform, offering next-day delivery from UK stock. Its portfolio spans 47,212+ SKUs across eight proprietary sub-brands — Diyas, Mantra, Deco, Luxram, Mantra Fusion, DLux, TechTouch, and Diyas Home — covering decorative lighting, crystal fixtures, Tiffany lighting, LED indoor and exterior luminaires, track systems, strip lighting, lamps and bulbs, ceiling fans, and home decor accessories.

The product range integrates conventional lighting (incandescent, halogen, compact fluorescent, metal halide) with modern LED technology, smart lighting (Alexa, Google Voice Control, APP control), and specialized systems including a proprietary 48V Magneto Track System and IP54-IP67 exterior luminaires. Technology partnerships with Eutrac, LTech, Tridonic, Trendi, and Snappy extend the offering into track components, LED drivers and controllers, and wiring accessories, enabling a one-stop lighting solution for trade customers.

Revenue is generated through wholesale hardware sales under a trade account model with tiered user permissions and quote-based pricing. The company maintains a UK-focused core market with a separate UAE-facing e-commerce presence, suggesting international growth intent. It operates as a privately held, founder-owned entity with 101-250 employees and no disclosed external investment, M&A activity, or institutional capital.
