Currys new hub opens in Durham to support local firms

Currys Business launched the space at its Durham retail site on June 9, 2026, providing SMEs with face-to-face advice, flexible payment options, and technology solutions designed to support their daily operations.

Christopher Prow, business customer manager at Currys Business Durham, said: “We speak to local businesses every day, and many are trying to balance rising costs with the need to keep investing in the right technology.

“The Hub is about giving County Durham’s business community a local point of contact where they can get practical advice, flexible support and solutions that genuinely work for them.”

The hub will be led by a dedicated business customer manager who will work directly with SMEs to understand their challenges.

Support will include leasing options, 30-day credit, and access to exclusive business pricing across Currys’ technology products.

It aims to help businesses from all sectors, including hospitality, retail, logistics, manufacturing, and public services.

Support will cover point-of-sale systems, laptops, connectivity solutions, and appliances.

Currys said a key goal is to help SMEs operate more efficiently amid rising operational costs and increasingly complex technology needs.

The company also plans to engage with the wider business community in County Durham through networking, partnerships, and knowledge-sharing initiatives.

Currys Business has supported SMEs and organisations for 30 years, helping them access the right technology with expert advice and competitive pricing.

Through online support and business hubs nationwide, local businesses can get personalised, face-to-face guidance from dedicated business customer managers, helping them plan, invest, and grow with confidence.

County Durham is home to around 14,500 businesses, the majority of which are SMEs and microbusinesses, according to Currys.

The hub aims to be a practical, on-the-ground resource for organisations seeking technology advice, support, and end-to-end services.

Currys said the hub is focused on practical solutions that address the real challenges SMEs face.

This includes helping hospitality firms prepare for peak tourist season, supporting landlords with efficient appliance upgrades, and ensuring growing businesses have the right tools and connectivity to stay competitive.

The hub also provides installation, setup, and responsible recycling services for old tech.

Currys said this is designed to save time and reduce hassle for busy business owners.

To mark the opening, Currys Business is offering new business customers a special introductory discount of 5 percent off all products for a 12-week period from June 9, 2026 to September 1.

The offer is available only to new business customers in the UK.
