Head of Retail Tricia Lester said Ashdown, which has branches in Oxted, Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells, as well as in Knutsford, hopes to expand further into the Chorleywood area “where it could support that branch as well”.
"We're definitely on the lookout for store number six,” she told TTG, explaining Ultimate Destinations’ owner Alan Haynes had approached Ashdown about a possible purchase as he was looking to “take a step back”. He will continue to support the business during the transition and beyond, working one day a week to ensure continuity for clients.
