Ardent was born in May 2006 and started trading in Leeds on the 1st September 2006 specialising in sourcing and selling auto-electrical components to the auto-trade.

We buy direct from the manufacturers whether they are in Birmingham, Stockholm, Taiwan, New Delhi or Shanghai and we are not associated to any corporate buying groups nor do we use middle companies and therefore we are able to give our customers the best products at the lowest prices.

Our company number is 05452030 England and our registered office is Ardent Distribution Ltd, Suite E, Cardigan Mills, Lennox Road, Leeds, UK, LS4 2BL. Fax No. 0044(0)1132631558 Tel No. 0044(0)1132631418.


Our business model is simple and works as follows:

Retail Sales : – This year we will be attending Truckfest in Peterborough and Edingburgh as well as LRM Billing. Customers are encouraged to use our web site and will recieve discounts and promotions through our web mailing service.

Trade Sales : – We have trade counters at all of our locations and welcome customers to visit. We offer a mixture of van sales, brochure sales and web sales at all of our locations and our telephones are manned by experienced knowledgable staff. If you wish to open an account then please telephone any of our depots for a brochure and credit application form.

Wholesale Sales : – We currently have agreements with a number of auto businesses in the UK who sell Ardent products through their distribution network and we are looking for more. If you are interested in selling the products listed here and we have other products more focused on the auto-trade please contact us at wholesale@ardentdl.com. You’ll need to be an established business (VAT Registered) and demonstrate that you have volume sales.
