Our History...

 

Frank and May Shotton started business in Belk street, Hartlepool selling electrical goods.
As many old customers still remember their electrical adventure, this helped towards establishing their name today.

In 1962, they diverted into selling furniture and carpets. F.Shotton Ltd went from strength to strength.

The late 70's and early 80's saw four sons branch out, starting up their own businesses. This left the youngest son Clive.

Due to hard work and commitment the furniture business expanded in the 90's. This consisted of opening a Bedroom Centre and Warehouse on York road/Houghton street, and extending the Belk street main shop along Raby road. Shottons became the largest furniture business in Hartlepool offering quality furniture to the public.

 

In 2007, the main showroom needed to relocate as parking in Belk street became restricted. Therefore, the York Road bedroom centre was demolished and a new purpose built 20,000 sq-ft showroom took its place with free parking available via Houghton street. Shottons is now offering the best selection of furniture from all around the world under one roof.

Most recently in 2012 Shottons celebrated 50 years in the furniture business and long may it continue.
