Penzers, an award winning independent optician

In September 2019, the Midlands Enterprise Awards organised by SME News, rewarded and recognised the hardworking individuals and firms hailing from the Midlands region for their innovation and excellence in their various business practices as well as their outstanding overall performance and achievements.

Penzer Opticians was announced as a winner in these prestigious awards as a leading local independent optician and is proud to have been recognised.

This independent house practice was established by the late Robert Penzer nearly fifty years ago. And the fine tradition he built up at Maypole in the south Birmingham area is carried on today by his widow, Mrs Joy Penzer and her capable team of optical professionals.

Exceptional customer care

Penzers prides itself on delivering the best customer care. The fact that patients come back time and time again over many years is testament to that.

The opticians at Penzers have been there for many years. Likewise, the team at Penzers is well established and long standing. You are always promised a warm welcome.

Your eyes matter to us!
