Lighting Direct first appeared back in June 2000 and very quickly became regarded as one of the best consumer lighting suppliers on the web, regularly going toe-to-toe with high street entities and providing a comprehensive range, great value and good service. Having gradually increased its customer base and standing over a decade of supplying lighting and light fittings across the UK, Lighting Direct was purchased in late 2010 by award winning B2B lighting specialists Lyco Group.
