Affordable flooring supplier, Posh Flooring has agreed a merger with Anbo International Ltd, a Chinese flooring manufacturer, to consolidate assets and accelerate global growth.

The first deal of its kind, the merger sees Posh Flooring and Anbo become a vertically integrated business, encompassing manufacturing, distribution and retail into one body, and allowing customers to buy direct in order to get the best prices.

Having recently moved onto the high street with a brand new showroom in Leeds, the merger provides the flooring supplier with a platform for further growth, and will help the company create new jobs in Leeds, and support the expansion of Posh Flooring into Dubai and the UAE.

Originally launched by Leeds-based entrepreneur Dominic Nowell-Barnes in 2011, Posh Flooring currently turns over £5 million annually. Its merge partner Anbo, which was set up by Chinese entrepreneur Guren Bobby Zhou, has a [global turnover of £48 million](https://www.financedigest.com/global-cryogenic-submerged-motor-pumps-market-to-create-an-absolute-opportunity-of-us-714-4-million-by-2030.html "Global Cryogenic Submerged Motor Pumps Market to Create an Absolute $ Opportunity of US$ 714.4 Million by 2030") across the UK, Europe, China and Australia.
