Case Study: Dunelm

Summary

Bluestones One is very proud to support Dunelm with its New Stores & Refit programme.

Our teams support the Dunelm New Stores & Refit team across all aspects of merchandising activity within their stores. We supply the teams in accordance with Dunelm’s scope of works, and the duration and shift patterns can vary depending on the activity.

Challenges

As a home retailer, Dunelm has a variety of different merchandising methods, and their standards and expectations are high. With this in mind, we have both worked hard to gather the detail required for our teams to deliver and work with Dunelm to supply consistent teams from store to store, regardless of location.

Results

Bluestones continue to support Dunelm across their activity and are incredibly proud to do so. We have regular reviews to drive improvements and innovations across the activity that we do and look forward to maintaining our strong relationship.

I spend most of my time based in our North East office where we run a small team responsible for allocating the work to the field staff. On a day to day basis, we allocate the work and resources needed for each job site. How would you normally start your day at work?The start of each day is different and led by what has happened the previous night. The main priority is to resolve any day to day challenges or additional requests generated by the night teams. Once resolved we can move onto the planning of the following days and weeks.
