About Dawsons Fuels

W Dawson and Son (Dawsons Fuels) Ltd are an independent family run business based in Sedbergh, Cumbria, UK. The business was established in 1895 by William Dawson and is now run by two brothers, five generations later.  We specialise in the sale of coal, smokeless fuels and biomass products as well as other outdoor supplies including compost and bark.

As an independent business it allows us the freedom to locate and purchase products from a wide range of producers and suppliers. Add this to the high volumes in which we purchase our products and this enables us to sell them to customers at very competitive prices.

Diversification over the years has led to the direct supply of our products across the UK.  At Dawsons Fuels we are fully committed to managing our impact on the environment. We always try to ensure that we only supply high quality fuels of varying types, suitable for our customers’ needs.
