A GOBOWEN-based mobility company is moving to a new showroom to accommodate their continued expansion.

Shropshire Mobility Solutions Ltd is moving into the former Cafe on the Hill at Welsh Frankton and will open on Monday, July 6.

The showroom is seen as the next logical step in the growth of the company which will hopefully create new jobs in the future.

Andrea Marston, 33, company director, is looking forward to the move.

"The company was started at our home in Gobowen three years ago and has been hugely successful," she said. "The increased volume of sales and the opportunity of the right premises is the ideal way of progressing the business.

"The new showroom will fit our needs perfectly. We have the showroom, an office and working space but we will be keeping our Gobowen address as well for those people who can't necessarily travel.

"My husband Scott, a shareholder in the business, had a stroke four years ago and started using mobility aids which he found good for his rehabilitation.

"We identified a bit of a niche in the market and Scott's experiences have enabled us to help others because he's able to give a realistic opinion of products.

"We have developed the online side of the business and have sold as far north as Yorkshire and as far south as Lowestoft – it's growing all the time.

"We have two employees at the moment which will soon increase to three and we are hoping to take on more staff within the next six to 12 months as we anticipate a massive rise in sales after the showroom opens."
