Candlelight is stepping up its growth strategy with two major moves: expanding its UK sales network and opening a brand-new showroom in central London.

The brand has appointed six new sales agents, growing its team from two to eight and creating full nationwide UK coverage. This investment marks a decisive push to reach more retailers, build stronger partnerships, and drive new business across the UK.

Each of the new agents brings extensive experience within the independent retail sector, along with valuable, established relationships. Their in-depth market knowledge allows Candlelight to engage more effectively with stockists and identify fresh opportunities for growth in both established and untapped regions.

This expansion is about more than scale – it’s about service. With dedicated regional support, retailers can expect a more personal, responsive approach, alongside expert guidance on product ranges and merchandising. The strengthened team ensures Candlelight can stay close to its customers while continuing to grow its footprint.

Commenting on the expansion, Head of Brand Tommy Bartles said: “This is a pivotal moment for Candlelight. Bringing six new agents on board isn’t just about growing our numbers – it’s about strengthening our connection with independent retailers across the UK. We’ve carefully selected individuals who truly understand the market and share our passion for the brand. Their experience and relationships will be key as we continue to expand our reach.”

Joining the team are: Lene Hansen (Central England and the South), Kelly Wilbraham (Wales and the Channel Islands), Amina Nur (Yorkshire and the Humber), Jordan Shaw (Midlands), Lynn Fordham (East Anglia) and Rosie Trow (Devon and Cornwall). In addition, Joy Watkinson(North East) and Tony Doran (Scotland) continue to work with the team and are experienced Candlelight agents. 

Alongside its growing sales force, Candlelight is also launching a new showroom at the Business Design Centre in London. Opening on June 1 in Unit 307, the space will showcase the brand’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection and act as a central hub for customers and industry professionals.

Located in one of the UK’s leading trade destinations, the showroom places Candlelight at the heart of key industry activity. The Business Design Centre hosts major events throughout the year, giving the brand a prime platform to present its latest collections to a wider audience.

Designed to reflect Candlelight’s evolving identity, the showroom offers a more immersive way to experience its ranges. Visitors will be able to explore the S/S27 collection in a dedicated setting that highlights the quality, design, and commercial appeal for which the brand is known.

The showroom will operate on a strictly appointment-only basis, allowing for a more tailored and focused customer experience. Visitors will benefit from one-to-one time with the team, gaining deeper insight into the collections and how they can work within their retail space.

Candlelight will also open its doors during key trade events, including The London Home Fragrance Show, PG Live, and Exclusively Show, giving even more buyers the opportunity to experience the new space.

Head of Candlelight Sales Kate Winch said: “Opening our new showroom at the Business Design Centre is a huge step forward. It gives us a fantastic platform to showcase our collections in a more inspiring and engaging way. With the launch of S/S27, we’re excited to welcome both existing customers and new faces, and really bring the Candlelight brand to life.”

Together, the expanded sales team and new showroom signal a clear direction: growth, visibility, and stronger customer connections. By investing in both people and presence, Candlelight is positioning itself to capture greater market share and continue building momentum.
