Stride is expanding into Rugby & Nottingham!

Due to the success of our motor project we have partnered with Warwickshire County Council to expand our successful Motor Project into Rugby. This will be based at a brand new training centre stocked with all the latest tools and kit. It will be ran in a similar way to our motor project in Leicester. We are looking to appoint 2 new mechanics, who will work there. Both motor projects will be managed by our Head Mechanic Lee Saunders, our Motor projects will now be known as "Stride Automotive".

We are now looking for premises within Nottingham to replicate our Trading division, this will work in a very similar way to Leicester and managed by Chris Haylett. Once we have found suitable premises we will be building and selling furniture through the warehouse and "factory shop" if this proves to be as successful as Leicester retail outlets will soon follow.

Stride is opening a new Hair Salon!

Stride has decided to open a new hair salon, which will become the new hair and beauty training centre. We will also be employing another full time hair dresser as part of the salon will be for commercial use; so watch out for the cheap hair cuts coming from Stride.  The old salon was based on Sussex Street, the new one will replace what was our 5th shop 253 Belgrave Gate. This closure has reduced our shops down to four again, but we are on the look out for new premises.

Stride WINS SPARK!

Stride is one of the finalists from the SPARK event as a result we have been awarded extra funding, which will allow us to replicate our business in Nottingham! for more info click here.

Stride remakes website

We decided it was about time to update the website. Our very own ICT Manager is working as fast as he can in making all the information up and current. The new and improved website will be easier to use and be more informative.
