Demon Tweeks is a British retailer, based on the Wrexham Industrial Estate, in Wrexham, Wales. They are heavily advertised in car magazines and commonly appear in car shows, which make them very well known amongst car, motorcycle and motorsport enthusiasts and those involved in these circles.
Demon Tweeks was founded in 1973 by Alan Minshaw, an accomplished racing driver who previously worked as a motor trade salesman. He founded the company when he recognised the need to supply racing drivers products under one roof.
The company expanded to cater for the car modification and motorcycling market in the mid-1990s, and in 2004 was acquired by Minshaw's son, Jon Minshaw.
The company has a workforce of 130, based in a 10,000 sq ft (930 m2) showroom.
Famous quotes containing the word demon:
“The greater part of what my neighbors call good I believe in my soul to be bad, and if I repent of anything, it is very likely to be my good behavior. What demon possessed me that I behaved so well? You may say the wisest thing you can, old man,—you who have lived seventy years, not without honor of a kind,—I hear an irresistible voice which invites me away from all that.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
