Sofa Brands International (SBI) – owners of five leading sofa brands in the UK, have expanded their network with the addition of a 3,000 sq ft showroom in Long Eaton, in a deal brokered by property consultancy Commercial Property Partners LLP (CPP).
The UK’s leading branded sofa group and home to distinctive, premium brands such as Duresta, G Plan, Parker Knoll, The Lounge Co. and Collins & Hayes, SBI draws on the expertise and experience of nearly 500 combined years in the furniture industry.
This latest property acquisition sees SBI add to its existing portfolio, with sites strategically positioned throughout the UK.
Sean Bremner, partner at CPP, commented: “We are delighted to have completed the lease of this showroom property to Sofa Brands International.
“The property received lots of interest due to its roadside nature, and Sofa Brands International’s decision to submit a strong offer and ultimately progress a planning application was testament to their commitment to the location.”
Occupying a prominent spot on Tamworth Road – a key arterial road leading to Long Eaton – the showroom property boasts excellent passing trade, great connectivity to J25 of the M1, presenting the ideal solution to the business.
Ciaran McMahon, Finance Director of Sofa Brands International, commented: “Our showroom facility at Long Eaton will help to drive sales in the Midlands as we continue to strengthen our stronghold on the market both nationally and internationally.”
The SBI group employs 750 professionals and craftsmen and women in the UK.
Every piece of furniture is crafted by the hands of skilled upholsterers at their UK factories and dedicated site in Lithuania. Behind the craft of SBI is the speed, efficiency and precision of modern technology.
