Family business, established for over 50 years, the Ist. Shop was opened in 1960, selling 2nd. hand
vacuum cleaner parts, by the current owners father, Douglas, a door to door salesman.
As the white goods industry progressed through the sixties and seventies, new showrooms were
added to cope with the demand for the new automatic washing machines, and the introduction
of appliances such as deep freezers, microwave ovens and dishwashers.
In the mid seventies, a frozen food shop was opened in Dover, one of the first of its kind. This was
eventually sold to the butchers John Manson, and is still trading in the high street under the name
“Iceland”.
The family influence grew bigger in 1974 when daughter Elizabeth joined, then again in 1976 with
the addition to the staff of son Colin, the two current partners. In time, they were joined by Colin’s
wife, Sharon, who is still working with the business, and Elizabeth’s husband Kalvin, who has now
gone on to form his own succesfull company.
Colin and Sharon’s two sons, Lee and Danny joined in 1997 and 2002.
