A FURNITURE retailer will be unveiling a new showroom in Colchester’s Tollgate Centre Shopping Park, which will create seven new full time jobs for the town.

Oak Furnitureland, has fully refurbished the existing premises, which will be ready to open its doors to customers from Monday, April 12.

Ben North, divisional sales manager for Oak Furnitureland said: “Colchester is a historic market town that’s been undergoing a significant amount of regeneration lately, which is why it’s a source of great pride for us to be able to bring the Oak Furnitureland proposition to the town.”

Darren Wright, store manager at Oak Furnitureland Colchester said: “Within the showroom, we’ll be showcasing our best in class cabinet ranges, and will be amongst one of the first Oak Furnitureland stores to display two brand new real wood collections.

"We’ll also have a significant range of sofas to see and feel, that include some brand new styles, alongside a selection of home accessories.

“As a brand, we put our customers at the heart of everything that we do to ensure we deliver on both choice of style and quality of product, at great prices. Our new and already knowledgeable team is ready to go and we can't wait to welcome our first Colchester residents through the doors.”

To help keep both customers and colleagues safe, a one way system will be in place within the new showroom, and a limited number of customers will be admitted at any one time with a designated queuing area outside to help support social distancing safely.

Scan and Go contact free shopping will also be in operation, enabling customers to enjoy a completely contactless experience when in store.
