Sofas scotland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are many Sofa retailers in Scotland but the biggest is:
Sterling Furniture is a Scotland's largest furniture retail development based in Tillicoultry, Clackmannanshire, in Scotland. It was founded in 1974 by Stirling-based furniture retailer George Knowles, who based its concept on the out-of-town retail developments which had been successful in the United States. He bought and converted a disused mill in Tillicoultry, making it the largest furniture showroom in Scotland.
Knowles later expanded the complex to include a Homestore Outlet and garden centre, and built the Sterling Mills outlet mall in disused factory buildings opposite the furniture warehouse.
Their television advertisements, starring Scottish football commentator Dougie Donnelly have become part of popular culture, together with the phrase "Tillicoultry, near Stirling" (even though Tillicoultry is 10 miles east of Stirling).
Sterling have stores throughout Scotland in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Inverness and Uddingston but the Tillicoultry HQ is by far the largest with a homestore as well as two restaurants and a Garden Center.
