Here's several relevant Wikipedia policies you may want to look at:
 * Conflict of interest: This is the primary violation here; you're not supposed to write articles about yourself or your company. If you'd like someone to write an article about your company, I'd suggest you post the request at Requested_articles/Business and Economics and provide links to independent news coverage.
 * Notability (companies and corporations) (requires that articles about companies demonstrate that the company has received non-trivial independent coverage in books or newspapers --- that is, an actual newspaper article about the company, not just being mentioned in a list, directory, or corporate press release)
 * What Wikipedia is not --- among other things, Wikipedia is not a business directory, it is an encyclopedia
 * Inclusion is not an indicator of notability --- just because Screwfix has an article, doesn't mean they should have an article (Incidentally, another editor requested the Screwfix article be deleted in November; the deletion was contested, and no one's taken any further action on it since. I guess no one's very interested in Screwfix either)
