Furniture retailer grows regional warehouse capacity
Bedkingdom, an online furniture retailer, has expanded its warehouse operations with the acquisition of a new 55,756 sq ft facility in Wakefield.
It is part of the company’s ongoing strategy to support significant business growth and expand its product offering to include a broader range of furniture categories.
Originally established as a specialist bed retailer, Bedkingdom has grown its product portfolio and is now positioning itself as a competitor across the wider furniture market.
The new warehouse will give the e-retailer more capacity for stock, improved logistics efficiency, and faster fulfilment times for customers across the UK.
The investment is in response to rising demand and the company’s ambition to scale operations in line with its long-term vision.
Levon Hall, chief operating officer, said: “We’ve seen strong growth as we’ve expanded beyond beds into a wider furniture offering.
“This new facility gives us the space and infrastructure we need to continue that momentum and better serve our customers.”
Bedkingdom started selling mattresses online with a £400 investment in 2011.
It now has several brand-owned ranges of furniture, including Flair Furnishings, Noomi, Recoil, and Solace+Co, and curates a collection of boutique furniture brands – employing 49 people across the business.
Hall added: “Our brand has had a facelift, and this marks a new chapter for Bedkingdom. We’re focused on building a more comprehensive furniture destination while maintaining the value and service our customers have come to expect.”
