North East furniture retailer ScS has hailed strong trading in its key winter trading period, after seeing its order book double compared to pre-pandemic levels.
The Sunderland sofa and floorings company, which has a network of 100 stores across the UK, issued a trading update for the 26 weeks ended January 29 2022, saying the group traded well through the important winter sale period.
It said order intake for the first half of the year was in line with the board’s expectations, with one year like-for-like order intake growth of 16.6% and that two year like-for-like order intake is in line with pre-pandemic levels it recorded in the six months to January 25 2020.
