A FAST-growing flooring retailer is preparing to open its latest store in Kidderminster after investing £150,000 in the outlet.

Flooring Superstore is set to open its doors at the Crossley Retail Park this Saturday (June 26).

It's the 12th store the company has launched in just two months and is resulting in the creation of four new sales representative roles for local people.

Shoppers visiting the store will have access to a wide range of flooring such as carpets, vinyl, laminate, real wood, luxury vinyl tiles, EvoCore and artificial grass.

Flooring Superstore regional manager, Simon Forrester, said: “We’re delighted to have been able to bring a Flooring Superstore to Kidderminster as part of our 2021 store roll-out programme.

“Kidderminster is a great location for us, providing us with a presence on a busy retail park and we’re looking forward to playing our own part in supporting the local retail economy.”

To mark the opening, Flooring Superstore is also running a free, in store ‘Golden Ticket’ promotion. Anyone who comes into the store, regardless of whether they are buying flooring or not, will be invited to take one of 150 tickets.

145 of these tickets will have 15 per cent off flooring, four will give people £250 to spend in-store and one golden ticket will give a lucky person £1,000 to spend on flooring ranges of their choice.

So far in 2021, Flooring Superstore has launched stores in Huddersfield, Doncaster, Newcastle, Norwich, Lincoln, Hull, Orpington, Basingstoke, Carlisle, Reading and Catford.

Mr Forrester added: “This brings the total number of stores we now have in the UK to 34 and further reinforces our position as one of the fastest growing retailers in the country.

“Considering that until 2012 we were purely an online business, we have come a long way in such a short space of time and that’s down to a number of factors, including offering an unrivalled range of flooring under one roof and being able to offer online pricing in all our stores.”

Flooring Superstore will be reaching out to local charities, voluntary organisations, or other good causes to see if they would benefit from donations of flooring for a particular project.
