Fastest Growing in Europe

 

For the second year in a row, Europe’s 500 has announced Dreams, Britain’s leading Bed Specialist, as being officially the UK’s fastest growing furniture retailer in Europe’s 500 listing of the fastest growing European companies for 2007.

In addition to having the accolade of being the UK’s fastest growing furniture retailer, for the second year in a row, Dreams also ranks as one of Europe’s 150 fastest growing companies.

 

This is an extraordinary achievement considering the number of businesses in Europe totals more than 25 million!
The prestigious list which is compiled annually by Europe’s 500 and is supported by both Microsoft and KPMG, ranks companies across Europe on the criteria of growth levels and job creation. Chairman of Dreams, Mike Clare and his wife Carol will be travelling to Prague to collect this impressive award at a gala evening to celebrate the best of the best.

To qualify for this prestigious award, companies had to demonstrate consistent year on year growth since 2002 in both job creation and turnover. On average, each of the 500 companies that appeared in the list created 99 jobs and increased sales by 25 million euros or 18 per cent per year. Dreams, however has created over 200 jobs and increased its turnover by an impressive 29% in the last year alone. 

Mike Clare, says of the award: ““We are immensely proud to be named one of Europe’s fastest growing companies and delighted we are yet again officially the fastest growing furniture retailer in the UK. Europe’s 500 is a prestigious award and we consider it an incredible achievement to be included in this list. It is a real tribute to the determination, effort and hard work of everyone at Dreams that have helped us achieve this phenomenal success.”
