Easy Bathrooms takes spot on Sunday Times Virgin Atlantic Fast Track 100

We are immensely proud - after what has been a testing year - that we have won a place on the annual Sunday Times Virgin Atlantic Fast Track 100, making Easy Bathrooms the UK’s 64th fastest-growing company.

With a national footprint of 65 stores, we reported sales of £33.3m for the year end November 2019, making us just one of six companies in Yorkshire to gain a place on the table. However, in the last 12 months, we have grown sales to in excess of £45m, opened 23 new showrooms – including 16 since the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic in March – and increased staff numbers to 420 people nationally, making us an even stronger contender for the 2021 table.

Founder, Craig Waddington said: "I'm incredibly proud of what we've achieved at Easy Bathrooms in the last eight years, and our recent acceleration in growth – during a difficult year – is something that we take immense satisfaction in. We aim to become the number one bathroom and tile brand in the UK – so we hope that we remain a name on the list for years to come."

The Fast Track 100 is sponsored by Virgin Atlantic, BDO, DHL Express and N+1 Singer, and is compiled by Fast Track, the Oxford-based research and networking events firm.

Sir Richard Branson, founder of Virgin Atlantic and Virgin Group, which has supported Fast Track 100 for all 24 years, said: “While we are living in extremely uncertain and challenging times, there is one thing I am certain of: entrepreneurs are the dreamers, the doers, and the innovators that have the power to have a positive impact on society. There are so many inspiring examples of this on the Fast Track 100 league table showing this is just as true, if not more so, in 2020 as it ever has been.”

This year’s Fast Track 100 achieved, on average, sales growth of 73% a year over three years to a combined total of £4.4bn. The companies are all profitable, and together they employ 32,000 staff, having more than tripled their combined workforce over the period.
