Benijofar based Global Discount Furniture Outlet proprietor Hayley featured in the C5 TV documentary ‘Bargain Loving Brits In The Sun’ showcasing the business.
“It was a shock to find myself in front of the TV cameras – I couldn’t believe it!,” said Hayley.
Mother of two children, Oliver, 12, and Marcus, 15, Hayley said: “It’s been good for the business, with many people popping into the shop and others being in touch saying it was great to see us on TV.”
Hayley, who lives in Los Montesinos after moving to the Vega Baja town from Elche, said: “We opened Global Discount Furniture Outlet in 2016 and it has been a big success.”
Global Discount Furniture Outlet is based on Calle Vicente Blasco Ibañez, 50, Benijofar, with Hayley being helped to run the business by her father Mark.
“The C5 filming has done well for the business,” said Mark, a former owner of an office furniture company in the UK.
“After research we decided to be based in Benijofar. We loved it after visiting the village,” said Hayley.
“The location is brilliant, which are former cinema premises. The people here are so lovely,” added Hayley.
Global Discount Furniture Outlet Benijofar featured in the latest series of the C5 documentary, narrated by actor John Thomson, which follows Brits who have moved to Spain.
During filming Hayley’s grandad Christopher, who visited Spain to celebrate his 80th birthday, featured on the programme.
“Filming started in September 2021, but was halted during the coronovirus pandemic, then filming recommenced. It has been brilliant,” said Hayley, who is appearing on another TV show, to be aired in April.
