Dunelm Bridgend

Following another set of impressive results, Dunelm’s migration to a new digital platform at the end of last year has helped boost sales and attract new customers while impressing loyal ones.

Dunelm set out to transform its online offering after streamlining its business – following the closure of the Worldstores website it acquired in 2016 – and last October launched a new ecommerce platform.
