Notes to Editors

ScS is one of the UK's largest retailers of sofas, flooring and furniture. We trade as two separate brands: the core ScS brand and the newly acquired Snug brand.

The ScS brand seeks to offer value and choice through a wide range of sofas, flooring and furniture products. The product range is designed to appeal to a broad customer base with a mid-market priced offering and is currently traded from 101 stores. The brand specialises primarily in fabric and leather sofas and chairs, selling a range of branded products which are not sold under registered trademarks and a range of branded products which are sold under registered trademarks owned by ScS (such as Endurance, Inspire and SiSi Italia). It also offers a range of third party brands (which include La-Z-Boy, Ideal Home and G Plan). The flooring business includes carpets, rugs, wood, laminate and luxury vinyl tiling.

Snug is an innovative digital-first sofa and sofa-bed business specialising in modular and re-configurable sofas, with quick delivery and excellent quality and customer service. Although predominantly online, Snug also operates from three stores with two in London (Westfield and Islington), one in Leeds and 24 concessions throughout the UK.
