Company description The Scuba + Outdoor Pursuits Centre, or as we should now say Centre’s, originally started life as Cannock Scuba Centre right back in 1995. It’s original founders John and Ang kept things small on the Retail side for the first few years concentrating on their PADI Training, however in later years they made their biggest mistake ever, they invited Mark to come on board …
With his “Dr Evil – Lets take over the world approach” (even including his soft white pussy …. Ooh Err), Mark soon began to scale up operations as rapidly as possible. With PADI Training at the heart of everything a more professional and well managed approach to all aspects of the business led to almost immediate expansions at Cannock Scuba. In 1999 the bullet was well and truly bitten and the first satellite store was opened, but wow did that pose some problems …
The biggest and most major problem to overcome in the early years was what to do with their name, because how can you have a Cannock Scuba Centre in Newcastle-under-Lyme ! Many hours of deliberation, and planning for the future later and The Scuba + Outdoor Pursuits Centre was born …
As they expanded both their PADI Recreational Diver programmes, their well respected PADI Pro Diver programmes and of course by now huge Retail Stock the business continued to grow. In 2000 Cannock Scuba Centre finally disappeared as the main store evolved into its 1300 sq ft purpose built Scuba + Outdoor Pursuits Centre showroom at Cannock. The classrooms then went even crazier and this meant the Training Team also continued to grow, by now encompassing 3 Full Time Instructors and more Dive Maters and Assistant Instructors you could throw a stick at (although on many occasions this has been tried, but they keep ducking) …
Final stages of expansion, for now at least (Insert evil laugh !), saw their Southern Store open in Solihull. This fully re-fitted store opened its doors in July 2002, after a very fraught self-building exercise. With the empire completed The Scuba + Outdoor Pursuits Centre’s now offer an-unrivalled Training and Retail service throughout The Midlands and Staffordshire, with as they say a “Once visited always remembered” philosophy …
Our retail division comprises of three stores, located in Cannock, Newcastle-under-Lyme & Solihull. We also have a variable location Exhibition Team, which visits all the major shows including: The London International Dive Show (LIDS), The Dive Show - NEC, Birmingham & The Outdoors Show - NEC, Birmingham.
All our stores operate to the highest of standards, and we pride ourselves on the level of experience and knowledge that every member of our team has, and is always willing to share. In terms of our stock levels, we can’t be beaten, we stock every major brand on the market and when we say stock, we really do mean stock; our shelves are always full. Our philosophy is that when you visit one of our stores you can get the advice you need, see the equipment you want and leave with it, all in just one visit.
