Tapi set to open next tranche of ex-Carpetright stores

Tapi has confirmed the opening dates for its next set of stores located in the former Carpetright units as it ploughs investment into its store network.

The flooring specialist will open another four locations this month in Basildon, Coventry, Crawley and Leeds Birstall after unveiling 21 new shops so far this spring.

It comes after Tapi, which has more than 170 stores across the UK, acquired Carpetright’s brand, two of its warehouses and 54 retail units out of administration last July.



Tapi Carpets & Floors director of buying Charlie Harris said: “Everyone at Tapi is really excited about our new store openings over the coming weeks.

“We’re investing heavily to ensure that every store lives up to our high standards and they will be full to the brim with a wide selection of Carpet, Laminate, Luxury Vinyl, Vinyl and Engineered Wood.

“Each of these stores has been carefully chosen to bring us closer to our mission of delivery great value flooring to everyone in Britain and we’re quietly confident that they will be a real success for us.”

Former Carpetright stores that reopened as Tapi Carpets this spring include: Bristol, Cannock, Carmarthen, Chesterfield, Cramlington, East Grinstead, East Sheen, Epsom, Hereford, Ipswich, Lancaster, Mansfield, Newbury, Newmarket, North Shields, Sevenoaks, Southampton, Teddington, Trowbridge, Wimbledon and Woking.
