Bradbeers is a family run chain of department and furniture stores with branches in Salisbury, New Milton, Hedge End and Romsey. It has been running in Hampshire for over 175 years. The origins of the business stem back to a small drapery shop in Southampton run by R. S. Smith. The store traded under various names until 1892 when Mr Bradbeer entered the business. The shop was destroyed during the bombing of Southampton during World War II, and the firm ceased trading in the city. Today, the business operates from four main sites with department stores in Romsey and New Milton and furniture stores in both New Milton and Hedge End.
