Granville Technology Group Ltd was a British computer retailer based in Simonstone, near Burnley, Lancashire that traded as The Computer Shop. It was the UK's largest reseller of Time and Tiny brands, which were produced by the Time Factory located at the same site. At one point the company had over 300 stores in the UK.

The company went into receivership at the end of July 2005, at which time it employed 1600 people and was one of the largest retailers of computers in Britain.

[edit] Time UK Factory

This was the main supplier for Granville Technology and was the actual manufacturer of products re-sold by Granville - Computers, Notebooks and Flat Screen TVs. The company is continuing to support consumers that purchased Time products from Granville Technology Group Ltd. The Time brand is currently licenced to Time UK in the UK.
