David ventured into the furniture world after leaving school in 1965 joining JJ Allens in their furniture department as a trainee where he gained invaluable experience of the furniture trade.
In 1972 David & Annie established their family business and opened their first shop in Parley Cross Ferndown selling second hand furniture. In 1977 they opened a second showroom in Glenmoor Road, selling beds and bedroom furniture. As the company grew another showroom followed in Ham Lane Longham in 1982 selling lounge and dining room furniture. In 1992 they converted the ‘Welcome Lodge Motel’ on Ringwood Road into one showroom incorporating both furniture and bedroom departments.
Since then, the business has grown into one of the most prestigious independent furniture retailers on the South Coast. They could not have envisaged that, now 50 years on, the company would grow to such an extent, still remaining a family business with their daughters Susie & Sarah joining the company in 1997 and 1998.
Throughout the 50 years they managed to maintain traditional values with very high standards of customer service along with an enviable reputation for exceptional quality and choice of stunning furniture ranges throughout the departments. The growth of David Phipp House Furnisher has been achieved by hard work and loyal staff, some of whom have been with the company for over 40 years.
During the year they will have celebratory offers in the showroom starting with Stressless at 50% OFF certain discontinued models throughout March! Keep a lookout on the website and Facebook for further 50th Anniversary Offers through the year!
We would like to thank our customers for their support over our successful 50 years of trading and welcome you to our 50th Year of celebrations!
