Welcome to the Fanthorpes Hifi Website.

Fanthorpes is Hull's longest established HiFi and electrical retailer. The company has been trading in Hepworth's Arcade in the Old Town of Kingston Upon Hull since 1948. Opened by Arthur Fanthorpe and his wife Laura in 1948, Arthur and Laura began by buying and selling army surplus radio equipment at auction. The business expanded and soon became the go to place in the city for buying components and radio equipment. There was nothing that you couldn't pick up at Fanthorpes.

The products that we sell may have changed dramatically over the years, but our aim at Fanthorpes has remained unchanged. At Fanthorpes we strive to provide a quality service for our customers, whatever they wish to purchase, from the simplest of radios to the complexity of a home cinema surround system. Whatever the product we here at Fanthorpes will endeavour to see that the customer is given the highest level service possible. It is this commitment to the customer that has seen Fanthorpes thrive in Hull for over 60 years.
