Commercial furniture supplier Eclipse Furniture has reported a decline in sales as well as a loss.

According to its latest filed accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024, total sales fell 5.1% to £13m from £13.7m in 2023.

UK sales were down from £13.3m to £12.8m, while EU sales declined to £165,000 from £403,000. Rest of the world revenues were down to £36,000 from £69,000.

Pre-tax losses resulted at £844,000, down from a profit of £20,000 recorded the previous year.

Stated within its report, the company said: “During the year the directors adjusted the business strategy to delivery of a blend of bespoke products to key customers alongside a stocked range with short lead times. The implementation of this strategy has led to increased spend on development of the distribution function, staff members and team development.

“This investment into the operations led to the results achieved during 2024 but is considered to have set the infrastructure for management’s growth plans.”
