William May celebrates ‘successful year’

Jeweller William May has announced it is celebrating its “best 12-month trading period yet”.

The Manchester-based jeweller said its overall sales increased by 40% year-on-year, with “particularly” strong growth in its second-hand jewellery collection.

The company also announced the appointment of three new members to its team within the last three months. Two recruits have joined the customer services team, and the third will lead William May’s social media.

A spokesperson for William May, Nick Withington, said: “2019 was another successful year at William May, with strong incremental growth year-on-year. 

“Our aim for 2020 is to continue to cement our position as the go-to place for unique one-off pieces as well as luxury pre-owned watches.”

He added: “The new jewellery category has also been a big growth area for us over the past year, and we hope this area continues to thrive into 2020.”
