Sunderland Business Sexy Bars UK finds Success as Bespoke Gift Idea

LEEDS, U.K. - Oct. 30, 2014 - PRLog -- Clare Allen’s Sexy Bars UK is a Sunderland success story that sell tailor made bars for home use. Buying a home bar is a growing trend among homeowners looking to bring the fun of the pub into the comfort of their home.

In the early days, word of mouth was a key catalyst to their success and Clare quickly built a reputation for quality design and good service. Buyers love throwing parties to show off their new bars to envious friends who would go on to buy a Sexy Bar for themselves.

Having built a reputation for good quality in the North East, Clare decided to take on the daunting task of selling online. In 2013 Sexy Bars opened an online merchant account with payment processor Nochex enabling them to trade online. A year later Clare has more orders than she can shake a stick at; business is booming.

Sexy Bars has grown into a thriving online retailer. Home bars have turned out to be a hugely popular gift idea amongst couples. Boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands and wives love giving bars as gifts for their other halves. Buying a bar for a spouse is a cheeky way of getting something both partners can enjoy.

With Christmas coming up we spoke to Sexy Bars UK owner Clare as she approaches her busiest time of the year.

“Christmas is always a busy time for Sexy Bars, we deliver bars right up to Christmas Eve. The great thing for nearby customers is there is also the option of local collection. We’re actually working on a beautiful bespoke model for a local man this week. It’s a very stylish bar called the ‘Lit Bar’ with blue lighting. We are making it larger than the normal model to suit his newly completed games room. The bar is always the icing on the cake and completes our customer’s home projects, it’s a delight to see our bars in situ, some customers send us a picture of themselves enjoying their bar - lucky them!

We have had a range of customers over the years since 2007 when we started trading in a tiny workshop in High Street East, from Premiership footballers, to customers with holiday homes, one family bought a bar for their Washington home and another for their holiday pad in Lanzarote, we well wrapped that bar alright! It arrived safe and sound.

We sell online and all our bars are available at www.sexybars.moonfruit.co.uk “

Sexy Bars UK are currently running a one off sale on their newest model ‘The Saturn Black’ a sleek long length fully glossed bar that is available with customised illumination including colour changing lights to add that extra sparkle to your Christmas festivities. The colour change model is currently on offer at £320, normally £399.
