Peterborough, UK — A local success story rooted in family values, dedication, and community spirit continues to thrive as Mays Furniture celebrates an incredible 40 years in business.

Founded in 1986 by Brian May, Mays quickly became a beloved fixture in Peterborough. Known for his fair pricing and exceptional customer care, Brian earned the trust and loyalty of generations of customers. His approach was simple yet powerful: provide quality furniture at honest prices, with service that made every customer feel valued.

Brian May

The man, the myth, the legend.

Today, that same philosophy lives on through his son, Lloyd May, who proudly carried the business forward. With a passion for maintaining his father’s standards, Lloyd has spent years building on the strong foundations laid before him—offering stylish, high-quality furniture without compromising affordability or service.

Now, Mays enters its third generation. Lloyd’s daughter, Chloe, has stepped into the business, working alongside her father to continue the family

tradition. Together, supported by a dedicated and long-standing team, they serve Peterborough and the surrounding communities with the same warmth, care, and commitment that defined the company from the very beginning.

This year marks a significant milestone: 40 years of Mays. Four decades filled with growth, challenges, and countless cherished memories shared with

customers, colleagues, friends, and family. It is a moment not only to celebrate the business, but to recognise the people who made it possible.

Mays’ dedication has not gone unnoticed. The company has proudly been recognised as one of the Top Three Rated furniture stores in Peterborough for over seven consecutive years—an achievement that reflects the consistent hard work and passion of the entire team.

As Mays looks to the future, one thing remains unchanged: a heartfelt appreciation for its community.

“Our journey wouldn’t have been possible without the continued support of our customers, our friends, and our family,” the team shared. “We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has been part of our story.”

After 40 years, Mays isn’t just a furniture store—it’s a family legacy, still growing, still serving, and still delivering that unmistakable ‘aMAYSing’ touch.
