About
HPS
Who/what
is HPS?
Founded in 1999 (and originally
a division of Gordon Harwood Computers Ltd /
GHC, formed in 1982 and itself originally a
subsidiary of a family business trading since
1955) , HPS is now one of the best known motorcycle
accessory retail brands, both UK and worldwide.
From small beginnings we are proud to have built
our business based around excellent service
and product knowledge, combined with competitive
prices and, in addition to our retail operations
we now also distribute some key high-quality
lines in the UK too.
Who
is behind HPS?
Originally the idea for HPS came from the
directors of GHC, Giles and Anne Harwood,
but behind HPS is a dedicated team operating
in areas of pre-sales support and advice,
purchasing, warehouse, despatch and after-sales
support whose aim is to ensure that all
HPS's customers receive the best service
there is.
HPS
was conceived by the founders after they
had been disappointed for many years at
the poor standards of service constantly
received when buying parts for their own
bikes.

Their
belief was, and still is that many bikers
get poor advice, poor service and poor after
sales help too often when trying to improve
their bike's performance, handling or looks.
Giles said 'I started building motorcycles
(against my parents' wishes) from old parts
I begged from my mates' elder brothers when
I was eleven years old. Eventually upon
leaving school my dream came true when I
got the job as an apprentice motorcycle
mechanic in a local dealership. After about
a year in this job, though, I was persuaded
to further my education which I did by enrolling
on a three year full-time automotive engineering
and management course. Just after graduating
from this course, I thought I was about
to rejoin the motor/bike trade full time
when the opportunity arose to start the
computer business which took me down that
path for 18 very enjoyable years.

The
computer business had grown to a turnover
of approaching £10m, the most part
of it transacted by mail order, with,
we are told, an unrivalled reputation
for the highest quality service (60% of
our turnover each month is from customers
who come back to us repeatedly).
The sophisticated systems we have developed
over many years to ensure our computer
customers throughout the UK and world-wide
receive this high quality of service lend
themselves equally as well to the supply
of performance parts for motorcycles.
We
are always delighted to talk to anyone,
whether a customer or not, about anything
to do with their bike, or bikes in general
and HPS (whether they've received good
or bad service) or discuss any ideas about
how we can improve.
