Family-owned Banbury furniture store announces retirement after 35 years of trading

A family-owned Banbury furniture business has announced it will close this spring after 35 years of trading.

Bennetts Family Furnishings will close its Warwick Road store on March 12 and will close its warehouse at the end of April.

The business states the cost of living crisis and increasing costs and taxes as factors in the decision behind the closure.

A spokesperson for the business said: “After 35 years of successful trading in Banbury, we have decided now is the time to put away the marker pens and hang up the sale signs for the last time.

“It’s been a privilege to serve so many special customers, but, with the cost of living crisis and looming additional costs and taxes combined with an offer on our freehold the stars have aligned and allowed us to plan a successful exit from retailing.”

Bennetts Family Furnishings will now be holding a sale until it closes its doors permanently.
