Family business 'delighted' after Leyland showroom move
The company was given three months to relocate.
A bed retailer that has served the Eccleston community for decades has relocated to Leyland.
Northern Trust Company Ltd has let the 7,327 sq ft former Screwfix unit at Kings Court in Leyland to Eccleston Bed Centre Limited. The family-run business offers a range of beds, mattresses, bed frames, headboards, bedroom furniture and related products.
Having traded successfully from their previous premises in Grove Mills, Eccleston, for many years, the company was required to relocate after being given only three months’ notice to vacate following the sale of the property.
Northern Trust worked closely with Eccleston Bed Centre Limited to help facilitate a swift move into the Kings Court development.
Tony Leech of Eccleston Bed Centre said: "We are delighted to have secured our new premises at Kings Court and to continue serving our customers from a modern and accessible showroom environment.
"After receiving such short notice to vacate our previous premises, it was essential for us to move quickly and minimise disruption to the business. We would particularly like to thank Nick Hemmings and the team at Northern Trust for their support throughout the process and for helping us secure and move into the premises within a very short timeframe."
Nick Hemmings, regional property manager at Northern Trust, added: "We are delighted to welcome Eccleston Bed Centre Limited to Kings Court. As a long-established family business with an excellent regional reputation, they are a fantastic addition to this popular estate, which is already home to a range of trade counter and retail businesses, including the temporary home of Leyland Market."
Hemmings continued: "This letting also means that Kings Court is now fully occupied, demonstrating continued strong demand for well-located industrial, trade counter and retail accommodation in Leyland, a town which continues to benefit from significant investment and regeneration. We wish Eccleston Bed Centre every success in their new premises."
