About ScS

About ScS/Our History

Since our humble beginnings, ScS has evolved from a general home furnishing store to one of the UK’s leading sofa and carpet specialists. Our business was founded in 1894, in Sunderland, Tyne and Wear.

Over the next 100 years we have successfully grown our business through offering quality sofas and carpets and putting you, our customers, first. We have now opened 101 stores across the country from as far north as Aberdeen all the way down to Plymouth. Today we employ over 1,500 people across the UK and we are listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Our mission is to deliver excellent service, value and quality through the passion and care of our customers, that is why our specialist staff are all highly trained. We pride ourselves on giving our customers a unique shopping experience allowing you to shop easily in-store, online or by phone, with experienced sofa and flooring professionals on hand to provide you with expert knowledge and advice.

We offer a wide choice of fabric and leather sofas, and work with some of the UK’s favourite sofa brands such as La-Z-Boy, G Plan, Parker Knoll, SiSi Italia and Endurance to bring our customers sofa ranges that cannot be found elsewhere on the high street. At ScS we believe in making quality and style accessible to you and through market-leading payment options, like 4 years interest free credit, you can choose a way to pay the works for you.

When you place an order with us, you can be sure of guaranteed quality. All our sofas are made to your specifications and, along with our furniture and carpets, are made to the highest standards. Our specialist staff will be with you before, during and after your purchase so you can be put at ease knowing that you will receive the best possible service from ScS at all times.
