About us

99 Years Young - & counting down to our 100th Anniversary in 2023!

Brooks of Whitehaven are West Cumbria’s independent, award winning electrical retailer; offering the widest & latest choice of home entertainment products & home appliances – with a reputation for outstanding customer care & advice you can trust, along with the most competitive prices available!

Established in 1923, Brooks is still a local family run business, & we currently have the third generation of the Coyles family working in the business, continuing to build on the excellent reputation which has been proudly established locally by their fathers & grandfather before them.

Our recently refitted Duke Street showroom provides a new modern spacious environment which allows us to show and demonstrate a wide range of large screen OLED, QLED & LED TV Screens along with a wide array of Home Appliances from the industry’s leading suppliers. Our new showroom also enables us to fully demonstrate new technologies as they become available such as the latest Smart Technologies, Home Cinema Systems & Blu Ray DVD's.

Priding ourselves on the personal service and specialist knowledge which all our sales staff provide, we continue to adapt & evolve within the ever-changing world of technology. Offering informative, friendly advice, ranging from information about the latest Smart Home technology to cutting-edge OLED TV’s, while we can also supply everything your kitchen needs – from a Kettle to an American Fridge Freezer or Range Cooker, & most items can be supplied within a couple of days!
Oh …. & we haven’t forgotten our history either as we still have available a wide range of musical accessories!

All types of installations can be arranged for you – from fitting standard domestic appliances to the installation of all built-in appliances; TV & Home Entertainment installations including custom wall-mounted TV & Home Cinema installations; Custom CCTV installations; & Background Music & PA installations.

As a family-run business, we take pride in our customer service, & this doesn’t stop when you exit the shop as we pride ourselves on the attention & care we give to our customers after the sale.

Award Winners!

"Samsung Store of the Year" Winners 2014 & 2015!

In both 2014 & 2015 we travelled down to the Royal Albert Hall in London to take part in the Samsung Store of the Year finals, competing with a diverse range of stores based in towns & cities with far larger population numbers than here in West Cumbria.

After then being judged to have outstanding product knowledge & demonstration skills, & excellent customer service – something that has obviously been built up over the 90 years that Brooks have been trading in Whitehaven – we were then incredibly proud to win the prestigious “Samsung Store of the Year” Award for Northern Ireland, Scotland & Northern England over these two consecutive years

This has been recognised as a terrific achievement for a “small town” retailer, & all the staff at Brooks were enormously honoured & delighted with the awards, but also gave thanks to all their customers too – without who Brooks wouldn’t be the success that it is today.

In 2008 Brooks were awarded the Copeland Pride Award for customer service, & also won the Independent Marketing Digital Switchover Award during the country’s first Digital Switchover in 2007.
