An important message from the Managing Director - Ryan Long

I have taken the decision to stop deliveries with immediate effect.  The Prime Minister’s statement on Monday 23rd March was very clear that the single most important action we can all take in fighting coronavirus is to stay at home in order to protect the NHS and save lives.  We at Furniture World, wholeheartedly support the need to do this and as a result, we need our employees to stay at home.  Some of our employees are already working from home but this latest development means that our warehouses and transport operations will now be suspended from midday today Wednesday the 25th Of March.

I believe that this is the responsible action to take right now and I hope you will agree.  I am extremely sorry that this will mean we are unable to fulfill delivery of outstanding orders for the time being.  It is uncertain how long this situation will continue, but we will be in touch when anything changes.

We are happy to carry on taking orders through our website.  A lot of items on the site are made to order, with lead times displayed.  There will inevitably be some disruption within the supply chain due to the enormity of this unfolding situation but we are available on e-mail to answer any questions or queries you have regarding new or existing orders. 

We believe this is the right thing to do.  We will endeavour to provide timely and effective communication as this rapidly evolving situation continues to develop.  In the meantime, I would like to thank you for your understanding and support and to extend our very best wishes to you all.
