A Leeds flooring retailer has more than trebled its workforce after seeing sales jump.
Stories Flooring has recruited 20 staff after sales rose by 43% in the past year as shoppers turned to installing their own flooring during lockdown.
Founded in 2018 and previously known as Lifestyle Flooring UK until last November, the firm has invested £250,000 into the business and revamped its online presence.
‘The past year has been a rollercoaster ride unlike any other, but we’ve been overwhelmed with the public interest in interior design and the feedback we’ve had since we rebranded. Our new website has allowed us to connect with our customers on a personal level and allows them to tell their own story by finding the perfect flooring solutions for their living space,’ says Yarl Christie, Stories director.
‘I’m confident our new team is more than capable of taking Stories to the next level. I’m optimistic that 2021 will end up being a better year for all of us and look forward to growing the team over the next few years.’
