Strong year sees Dickinsons Furnishers hit £10m turnover mark
Dickinsons Furnishers Group, which owns five retail furnishing stores across the region, has reported a 22% increase in turnover to £10m.
Announcing results for the year ending 31st March 2016, the Northumberland-based returned impressive growth with pretax profits rise by £739k.
The business, which boasts the largest interior design studios in the North of England, recently acquired New England Interiors in Gosforth as part of a planned programme of expansion.
John Spreadbury, Managing Director, Dickinsons Group, said: “We are absolutely delighted with our results, return on investment and increased sales across our retail stores, contract and commercial divisions.
“We recently opened a new head office, distribution and warehousing facility in Prudhoe where all our non-retail staff are based, which has had huge benefits across the business allowing all processes and procedures to be controlled centrally.
“We have diversified into multiple markets reducing risk and have developed existing relationships and built new ones by winning new contracts which has grown the already successful contracting division and enhanced our commercial division enormously.”
