Morphy Richards licensee Consumer Brands is taking up new premises at Whittle Court, in Hanley, investing a six-figure sum into refurbishing the building.
The headquarters will be home to the company's sales & marketing teams, alongside customer service staff. In August 2023, Consumer Brands Limited became the official licensee of Morphy Richards and is currently situated at the Smithfield Works in Hanley. A warehouse facility and distribution centre is located in Chesterfield as well as a testing site in Leeds. Now 18 months later, Consumer Brands has reaffirmed its commitment to Stoke-on-Trent, by taking on new headquarters which will lead to a local recruitment drive.
Some employees from Chesterfield and Leeds will also be moving to Stoke-on-Trent once the new base opens in April. Consumer Brands has also said it is hoping to increase employee numbers from 31 to 53 this year.
