Sean has been trading on Mold market for over 30 years with his soft furnishing stall and opened his first shop Swanki’s on the Daniel Owen Square in Mold, over 14 years,  whilst continuing to trade every Wednesday and Saturday on the street market. 

He said: “Our customer base in Mold is very loyal and it’s our customers loyalty that has allowed us once again to expand the business in Mold and take on the former Argos unit. 

"The new shop is much bigger than our former store and also gives plenty of space for people to browse. I’m also delighted to now have our very own range of ‘Staggered’ branded soft furnishing which are made especially for us. 

"Over the next few weeks we will be putting out more and more stock, including a large range of curtains which can be made to measure.”
