An online mattress and bed retailer has opened a new division supplying commercial clients like hotels and universities.

Canterbury-based mattressnextday has employed a contracts supervisor and sales staff to advise customers on the bedding needed for different types of accommodation.

Chairman Patrick Seeley said: “With one of the biggest showrooms in Kent, mattressnextday is truly a force in the contracts sector.

“We prides ourselves on giving the best service possible, so if its one mattress or 1,000, all customers will be allocated their own contracts advisor, to deal with any questions relating to all requirements for contracts use.”
