Bedshed Welcomes Newest Franchisee

December 2022 saw Bedshed open its 2nd Sydney store in HomeCo Castle Hill. The newest franchisee to the Bedshed family decided to make a career change, swapping keys from earth moving equipment to becoming an owner of one of Australia’s largest mattress, bedding, and bedroom furniture franchise retailers. 

Opening only a couple days before Christmas, the franchisee and his staff had little time to fine tune what was learnt during Bedshed’s pre store opening training before Boxing Day, one of Bedshed’s busiest trading days of the year. 

At 550 square meters in size, this store is Bedshed’s smallest compared to the other 40 stores in the Bedshed network. This combined with its location in the underground parking lot together with 4 other mattress retailers meant that Bedshed were entering into unfamiliar territory. 

Relying on its Deepend store location reports meant that although this was unfamiliar territory, Bedshed could open with the confidence of knowing that the area and location were well researched and benchmarked against the rest of the network. Bedshed Castle Hill is proving to be a popular stop in the HomeCo Centre joining over 150 specialised stores. 

The latest in store design, lighting and product range are just some of the many features in our new Castle Hill store. Throughout its first few months of opening the store has traded well beyond all expectations!
