A family-run supplier of children’s and baby’s goods has taken on a new business unit as it continues to expand.
Bambinos and Beyond has signed a 10-year lease on another unit at Albion Gateway in Burton upon Trent, where it already had its base.
The company was established in 2014 and specialises in new, ex-display and preloved baby and nursery items.
It moved onto the Derby Road site in 2021 following a surge of orders during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Commercial property agent Rushton Hickman has let the unit to Bambinos and Beyond on behalf of St Modwen Properties.
Owner Shannon Harris, who runs the business with her father Chris Harris, said: ‘’From setting up and opening our family run business in 2014 and selling only toys and a very select range of preloved items, Bambinos and Beyond has gone from strength to strength over the years.
“During lockdown we made the decision to move from our previous location, so we viewed many properties and got in touch with Rushton Hickman about the Albion Gateway premises.
“At this time a jump to a 2,884 sq ft unit from our tiny 900 sq ft premises seemed a dream that we weren’t sure would pay off. After a lot of back and forth and support from Rushton Hickman we decided to take the jump.
“Three years on, we have now gone online, become an ambassador store for many brands such as Egg, Babystyle, Venicci and Cosatto and become one of the largest showrooms in the Midlands.
“We have now expanded and opened Unit 2 on the Albion Gateway estate for our new warehouse to fulfil orders and keep up with the demand, whilst utilising Unit 12 as a brand-new home section with 13 beautiful furniture displays available to view.”
Property Agent Taylor Millington added: ‘’We are pleased that the Burton-based business has been able to expand on the same estate.
“It’s great to see reoccurring tenants come back to us and grow their business further.”
