According to Karen Hambridge of The Hinkley Times, UK Flooring Direct relocated to Hinkley Commercial Park, now home to England's largest online flooring retailer since the business has relocated from Nuneaton.
The Hinkley location is off the A5. After several years of sustained growth, the firm has outgrown its previous premises. The Logix Road location offers a substantial increase in floorspace and easy access to nearby highways.

The move is likely to translate into a better working environment for staff with an increased capacity for storing inventory.
This retailer is eager to sustain their growth and be a £100 million, turnover operation. The building priced at £750,000, features a modern sales center, marketing suite, showroom, customer collection zone and five-bay warehouse. According to Ashby, “the new site offers the business the right combination of location, extensive office and operational space and a warehouse with enough stock-holding volume to achieve our goal of becoming a £100 million turnover business." adding that “most importantly of all, it provides our family of employees with a great working environment.”
An investment of £1.25 million over the last three years into the company’s operating system has helped catapult the organization to the top of the online retail league. Customers can choose to either visit the showroom or review samples at home thanks to UK Flooring Direct’s free postal service.
Relocating to this facility -with a larger space- is likely to mean recruitment. UK Flooring Direct has a staff of 75 though is looking for additional staff members to be placed across all areas of their business, as it continues to meet market demand. Learn more, HERE.
