Corporate member celebrates 125th anniversary

Corporate member and independent retailer Fishpools celebrated its 125th anniversary with a special in-store event at the end of March.

Fishpools is the south east’s largest quality furniture store at 62,000 sq ft. With 125 years of expertise and knowledge, Fishpools is proud of their reputation for offering great products, incredible value and first-class service across Hertfordshire, London, Essex and beyond.

Customers, staff, and well-wishers alike came together to share in the joyous atmosphere, reminiscing about past purchases and discovering new inspiration.

The Mayor of the Borough of Broxbourne was also in attendance and helped kick off the celebrations in style and cutting the beautifully decorated birthday cake.

Simon Fishpool, managing director of Fishpools, said: “In 1899, Ernest Fishpool borrowed £85 to open up his dream furniture store. Fast forward to 2024 and we’ve grown to be the largest quality furniture store in the south east, and are proud to be celebrating 125 years in the business this spring. A familiar and trusted presence in the local community, our family-run company has and always will pride itself on our high-quality, value for money and an unrivalled product offering, all whilst offering first-class customer service.

Our story wouldn’t be the same without our loyal customers and knowledgeable employees, so thank you for being a part of it, and here’s to the next 125 years!”
