Bathroom retailer creates 12 new jobs following £250k investment in second Leeds showroom

Easy Bathrooms, the trade and retail bathroom supplier, has launched a second Leeds-based showroom, following £250k of investment.

The 12,000sq ft showroom, which officially opened on 8 April 2017, is situated in Birstall on Oakwell Way, close to IKEA.

The launch of the new store, featuring over 250 bathroom and tile displays, has created 12 new jobs and forms part of the company’s ongoing expansion plans.

Neil Bell, head of retail for Easy Bathrooms, said: “We were delighted to open this site as it has such great links to the M1 and M62, making it a perfect location. It offers easy access for both our trade customers and the public, throughout the region and further afield.

“This is our 12th store throughout the country, with our other outlets positioned across Yorkshire and the Midlands. But we won’t stop here — we’re continually looking for new locations where we see a shortage of quality bathroom and tile suppliers!”

The opening of the Birstall store has also coincided with the acquisition of new 110,000 sq ft warehouse and distribution centre, adjoining the new showroom.

Neil continued: “Since we started the business, we’ve grown rapidly and our old space was nearing full capacity. So to support our ambitious growth strategy, we obtained this new warehouse, which is double the volume of our previous one.”

Easy Bathrooms launched in 2012 with its first store on Royds Lane, Leeds, which is still open today. Its other Yorkshire retail spaces are located in Sheffield, Huddersfield, Wakefield and Doncaster.
