Dunelm Group plc provided sales results for the first seven weeks of the fourth quarter commencing 28 March 2021. Total sales increased by 59% on a 2-year basis against the equivalent period in fiscal year 2019 (noting that stores were closed in the comparative fiscal year 2020 period).  Sales growth has been very strong since the majority of the company's stores re-opened on 12th April and the company continue to see good digital growth from the company's home delivery and Click & Collect channels. This high sales growth reflects the strength of the company's customer proposition and a variety of other factors including pent up demand following the extended store closure period, a buoyant homewares market and some benefit from the unseasonably cold Spring weather.
