According to its latest filed accounts for the year ended 30 September 2025, total sales dipped slightly by 1.8% to £17.3m from £17.6m in 2024.
Pre-tax profit resulted at £869,000, down from £978,000 compared to the previous year.
Stated within its report, the company, which specialises in manufacturing upholstered furniture with inbuilt rise and reclining mechanisms supplying to both domestic and specialist retailers, said that gross margin decreased to 25.8% from 30.1%, with demand for motion furniture, in particular rising recliners chairs, continuing to be strong.
“The results were achieved in difficult trading conditions in the post pandemic, which included the continuation of the war in Ukraine, high inflation, interest rates and tax increases all having an impact on retailer and consumer confidence.
“We have maintained strong relationships with our retailers and our suppliers during the year. Celebrity the company has continued to thrive despite the continued impact of economic circumstances on the general economy.
“We have been very proactive to look at new innovations in our market sector, working closely with retailers to display and present our ranges in the best possible way to work for both parties and gaining market share in the riser recliner market.”
