Our Story
Rooted in Sussex since 1974, R & D Goatley is a family business built on 50 years of sustainable quality, expert craftsmanship, and exceptional customer care. Our enduring commitment to trusted service and lasting value, pioneered by our father and grandfather, continues to drive us forward today.


For over 30 years, R & D Goatley proudly operated from the high street in Shoreham-by-Sea, building a strong reputation that validated Russell’s commitment to quality and service. During the 1990s, Russell’s sons—Jason, Simon, and Jordan—joined the business as their grandfather Dennis retired, continuing the family legacy. In 2004, to better serve our customers, we moved to spacious new premises on the A259 Coast Road in Portslade, offering an expanded product range and convenient parking. Russell’s core values and work ethic have been passed down to his sons, ensuring that R & D Goatley continues to deliver the exceptional service that has defined us for decades.
