A water supplier dedicated to serving a small number of clients extraordinarily well
The Water Retail Company (TWRC) is headed by a team with extensive experience in the water industry and utilities sector.
Our simple, transparent, no-nonsense approach means we offer highly competitive pricing for water and sewerage services for large and multi-site customers.
Water efficiency is at the heart of our business and we work with clients to develop a strategic efficiency plan that uses technology and innovation to drive down bills through reduced water usage, reduced effluent discharge and reduced surface water drainage.
We are working in partnership with the Energy Managers Association and this has allowed us to design a new way of buying and saving water, tailored to buyers’ needs.
