• In 2008 over 400 people were employed, today there are only 185.
• Only 90 stores are now being serviced from the operation compared with 400 in 2008.
• The offices and warehouses are now extremely dated and inefficient by modern standards and are becoming increasingly difficult and costly to maintain.
• There is tremendous loyalty to the local area from all those employed at the Head Office and a desire for the business to continue to be based in and around Apperley Bridge area.
