Carpetright fell into administration last month after struggling in the face of weaker consumer demand, and suffering a major cyber attack in April.

Carpetright's brand, intellectual property, 54 stores and two warehouses were bought by rival Tapi weeks later, while Bensons for Beds later announced it had bought 19 stores.
