Likewise Group plc, the fast growing UK floor coverings distributor, has increased by sales to date in 2022 by over 100%, a group of investors will hear this morning (Thursday 1 December).

At a presentation at the group’s UK headquarters at Birmingham Business Park, chief executive Tony Brewer will tell them that Likewise has achieved like-for-like sales increases of 39% in Q1 2022, 18.4% in Q2 and 21.8% in Q3.

October and November have shown an increase of 27.7%. Total sales increased by 108.2% in October and November making the year-to-date increase 103.9%.

Mr Brewer said: “The sales development is really encouraging, and we thank all of our management, staff, suppliers and customers for their contribution. The Board is conscious of securing an appropriate return on the extensive investment and producing the subsequent profitability in the medium term for the benefit of all stakeholders.

“Notwithstanding challenging market conditions this keeps the group very much on course to achieve its medium-term objectives.”

As previously stated, due to planned strategic investment and inflationary costs, profitability will remain in line with current market expectations.

Likewise Group includes William Armes, Lewis Abbott, H&V Carpets, Valley Wholesale Carpets and Delta Carpets as well as Likewise-branded divisions in the north, north-east, Midlands, south and south-east and Scotland.
