Upholstery manufacturer Tetrad has named a new senior management team.
Chris Fletcher has been promoted from commercial director; Rowena Allen has become responsible for sales as head of sales and marketing and Luke Stenchion has joined as finance director.
Tetrad owner Blandford Capital says the business continues to trade strongly and it is committed to supporting the business. In March, sister companies Westbridge Furniture and Belfield Leisure went into administration, and Fletcher’s promotion sees him succeed group ceo Tom Prestwich.
‘As we enter a new phase, Tetrad is in a strong position, and we are focused on building on that momentum. Following a challenging period for the wider group, including the closure of two businesses, we have taken the necessary steps to stabilise our operations and bring greater clarity and focus to the business,’ says Fletcher.
‘As part of this, we have refined our senior management structure to re-establish local control, ensuring Tetrad remains agile, resilient, and commercially focused. We are encouraged by the continued support from both customers and suppliers, which provides a solid foundation as we move forward.
‘With a clear strategy and renewed focus, Tetrad is
well positioned for the future and will continue to
deliver market-leading, innovative products for which
the brand is renowned.’
‘As Tetrad enters its next phase of development, the business is continuing to invest in its people and manufacturing capabilities,’ says Blandford.
‘A double digit increase in headcount during 2026 reflects its commitment to enhancing expertise, service and operations, whilst building the additional capacity to ensure we are meeting customer demand’,
‘Operating from its factory in Preston, Lancashire, for almost 60 years, Tetrad remains committed to delivering the quality, reliability, and craftsmanship that retail partners and customers expect from one of the UK’s leading premium upholstery manufacturers.’
