Carpetright

We understand that the news about Carpetright entering administration is disheartening. Carpetright, like many retailers, faced numerous challenges, particularly those affecting businesses selling big-ticket items. A combination of factors, including a significant reduction in consumer spending due to cost-of-living pressures, lower home sales, and a debilitating cyber-attack, made it impossible for the business to continue as it was.   The sale of 54 stores and the brand to Tapi has saved over 350 jobs, giving the Carpetright brand a chance to continue and flourish under new ownership.   To support employees facing redundancy, Tapi has funded a service through Clarity Recruiting to offer FREE employment workshops. These workshops cover essential skills such as CV preparation, interview techniques, and job search strategies. Additionally, Tapi has reached out to numerous retailers to introduce affected Carpetright staff to new roles. These retailers have been asked to prioritize applications, helping colleagues return to work as quickly as possible. Detailed information has been shared directly with those affected via a dedicated website.   For more information please visit https://bit.ly/4cUMcjx

3 Months ago we opened 2 new stores in Dunstable and Chesterfield. Here's our Store Manager from Dunstable Wayne Jones to tell us how things have been going. "Our brand-new store opened on March 29th and it has been growing week on week. We have now hit our targets two months in a row. When the old store closed, we all thought we were out of a job but thank you to Carpetright as they looked after us and relocated us until our new store opened. Not many companies would do that. The store itself is immaculate and has everything you could possibly need from a floor retailer and finished in such a high quality. It has everything from rugs to Axminster and from takeaway vinyl to engineered wood. Both myself and my staff really appreciate what Carpetright have done for us and hope to pay them back with lots of sales." #proud #oneteam #opportunities

Alongside raising funds to support Mind’s work, they give thousands of volunteers – many with lived experience of mental health problems – a place to build confidence and employability skills and raise Mind’s profile in communities across the country. #mindstockdrive #nomindleftbehind #mentalhealth
