Here’s our update for the month of December.

CFO Newsletter – Issue 13 – April 2023

Well sunshine at last and all smiles at Carpet Factory Outlets Kidderminster as we look forward to the summer. April was another busy month for sales in both carpets and especially hard flooring.

Apologies if you tried to call, email or visit our website on certain days in April and received no reply. We had several issues with all 3 during the month and unfortunately may not have received your enquiry. All lines of communication are now back open so please contact us again if you still need us.

We have ordered a further 2,500 square metres of Brintons roll ends, remnants, discontinued, clearance and slight seconds carpets. These are due to be delivered in early June and we aim to have these on our website www.cfoflooring.co.uk  and on display in store by the end of June. We are also working with Brintons Design team on developing our own exclusive Axminster carpet ranges. We have built a new stand for this in our showroom and samples of all 5 new ranges will be unveiled very soon.

Highlights for April were orders from Mrs Maxwell for around 150m2 of Sisal Weave and Derek Sweeney for around 120m2 of Heartland Heathers both made by Victoria Carpets. We also had the pleasure of seeing David Hill again in the store, this time ordering about 40m2 of Brintons Marquis to follow up from his order from November last year for 2 roll ends of Brintons Renaissance and Abbotsford.

Mr & Mrs Todd ordered over 100m2 of Karndean Art Select and Da Vinci LVT for their house. Neil and Dean are due to fit these in May.

Justin Higgins fitted the Kasbah and Castlemead Twist from Adams Carpets for Mr & Mrs Carre and Matt Raymond fitted the Brintons Timorous Beasties carpet and the Brockway Dimensions carpet for Kal Douley.

Our thank you’s this month go to Mr & Mrs Whittaker for their order for Brintons Bell Twist Spun Gold and both Emily Shiels and Jodi Read for their orders for Brockway Carpets Padstow range  in colours Chamois Pebble Tweed and Angora Strata respectively. It was a pleasure to meet you all.

Here’s our update for the month of December.

All here at CFO would like to wish everyone a very happy
Easter. March was another busy month for us here in terms of sales and
deliveries. We received over 2,000 square metres of Brintons clearance,
discontinued, slight seconds and roll end remnants. Most of these items are now
listed on our website. We also received over 60 remnant roll ends from Crucial
Trading, again most of these items are now on our website www.cfoflooring.co.uk

Herringbone from Ted Todd wood for Ms Potter.

CFO Newsletter – Issue 11 – February 2023

February gave us a few nice sunshine days and all at CFO were smiling talking about the lighter mornings and evenings, little did we know that colder weather and snow was due in March

The new Crucial Trading remnants were very successful for us with orders for rugs from Mrs Austin, Mrs Paterson and Tori Manderson from Northern Ireland. Thank you Tori for your patience and support and we are delighted you are happy with your rugs. We will be looking to buy more remnant ends from Crucial Trading the coming months, please keep your eyes on the CFO website for this.

We received orders this month from Kal Douley for Adams Carpets Close Companions and Brintons Timorous Beasties and some Victoria Carpets Habberley Ridge from Lorraine Schwartz.

Mr and Mrs Hurst visited the store and purchased some Brintons Heather Fern, they insisted that  Kelvin and Josh Hill installed their carpet not only because they installed their carpets previously but as Josh’s Auntie had lived in their house before them and Josh used to visit as a small boy.

We fitted over 80 square metres of Victoria Carpets and 28 boxes of our Woodland Fir herringbone for Mrs Sadler and supplied around 60 square metres of Brockway Carpets Solar to Asad Shaidy in London.

We have now also installed the Karndean flooring and Crucial Trading carpet to Sproson Opticians in Hagley, it’s looking great and photos will be posted on our Instagram soon.

Finally, It was a pleasure to meet with Lol and Veronica Cauley and talk about old times in Kidderminster and especially about the old carpet mills and the characters that worked there.

Here’s our update for the month of December.

CFO Newsletter – Issue 10 – January 2023

The year started slowly for all at CFO as we all recovered from too much food and drink, but we quickly picked ourselves up to record a good month for sales. This was mainly due to our clearance items bought in especially for our January sale.

Many of the clearance rolls from Rowe Carpets were sold and we were able to display the new Crucial Trading remnants. We are hoping that these will sell quickly and help us to develop our relationship with Crucial Trading for many years to come.

We have purchased around 2,000 square metres of Brintons clearance, discontinued, remnant, roll ends and slight seconds carpets along with seven rolls of various clearance items from Lusotufo, including some unusual wool stripe loop pile carpets. All these carpets are due to be delivered around the middle of March.

Highlights for January were the completion of the installation of the Brintons Quickweave for Johal. Photos of the installation will be shared on our instagram account very soon. The main office carpet from Brockway for Aztec Labels was also installed in January, thank you Colin and Sharon for your support and we hope that you are as happy as we are with your carpet. We also completed the installation of the Tudor Twist carpet from Victoria Carpets for Jon Saunders and received a large order from Mr Onderdonck in Aylesbury for the roll of CFO clearance Jack Diamond carpet.

Mrs Shaw ordered 17 boxes of Ted Tood wood flooring along with 34 square metres of Brintons Bell Twist. Mrs Roberts ordered over 65 square metres of Castlemead Twist from Adams Carpets for her lounge, hall and stairs and landing. She is so very happy, she is now planning on ordering more carpet from us for her bedrooms. Mike and Debbie Phasey ordered Brintons Country Plain Padstow for their Bedrooms and Landing with a taped stair runner to be installed in March. They have also ordered our own Highland Tweed range from Brintons for their lounge and chosen 16 boxes of Ted Tood wood flooring that Mike will install himself.

Here’s our update for the month of December.

CFO Newsletter – Issue 9 – December 2022

Well Christmas has been and gone and we would like to wish
everyone a Happy  New Year. The New Year
has started with lots of resolutions from the staff here at CFO, I wonder how
long they will last?

Our Sale started in January with many items reduced to
clear, including some Karndean Knight Tile Click in stone and wood effect, a
selection of V4 laminate flooring and many remnant ends collected from Rowe
Carpets in December. Once these ends have been sold we will be able to display
the clearance Crucial Trading carpets and sisal pieces.

Highlights for December were orders from Mr Birader and the
Thadwal Family both for over 100 square metres of Brintons Timorous Beasties
and Renaissance Collections. We also successfully worked with a number of
Interior Designers in December with both Anisha Malhotra Interiors and Marta
from Tibbatts Design in Birmingham ordering Cormar Linwood and Brockway
Heathcote respectively.

Mr Williams ordered 59 boxes of Karndean Knight Tile and
Opus along with 135 square metres of Victoria Carpets Ultimate Impressions and
Mr Jones ordered 29 Boxes of Ted Todd Classic Naturals. We also supplied a
sisal rug from Fibre to T.H. Baker Jewellers.
