Bright Goods LED Filament Lamps
Rule The Roost At Nando’s
restaurants in Rotherham, Newcastle, Southampton,
Huntingdon, Canary Wharf, Birmingham, and Bristol.
In fact, this Bright Goods success story is not restricted
to the UK but also embraces other prestigious overseas
installations including an impressive Nando’s project
in Deira City, Dubai, and others as far afield as South
Africa.
As part of a major upgrade of lighting within the
acclaimed chain of Nando’s restaurants, The Light
Corporation specified Bright Goods LED filament
lamps to replace the existing mix of halogen and
tungsten filament lighting.
Bright Goods has supplied a selection of LED filament
lamps from its wide range of popular shapes that
includes globes, squirrel cages, candles, long tubes and
traditional GLS bulbs. “As the sole lighting designer for
Nando’s, and after having previously tried and tested a
number of LED filament lamps, we made the decision
to recommend Bright Goods products,” says Darren
Parnaby, of The Light Corporation. “The main reason
for this is that the quality of the product is far greater
than that of other manufacturers both in terms of light
output, colour rendition and build quality.”
Every Nando’s restaurant is designed to have its own
distinctive ambience. This is achieved by bringing
together a variety of balanced and complementary
features including contemporary furnishings, durable
floor surfaces, stylish wall coverings and, crucially,
warm and welcoming lighting. This attention to detail
often extends to embrace handmade light fixtures and
fittings including Czech glass fluid pendants, metal
cages, wooden shades and wicker baskets. Nando’s
are always keen to support small, local artisans who
frequently use materials when manufacturing light
fittings which can be unsuitable for traditional hot
lamps. The nature of cool running LED allows almost
anything to become a light fitting, broadening the
possibilities for Nando’s lighting. Consequently, the
Bright Goods LED filament lamps have been used by
Nando’s since July 2015 when the first installation was
completed in the company’s restaurant in Hove. Since
then, numerous other locations in the Nando’s chain
have benefited from these innovative lamps including

versatility of the Bright Goods range means that the
individual restaurant designs can be uncompromising
and as spectacular as originally conceived.
This aspect of Nando’s design philosophy is recognised
and welcomed by Darren. He says, “We are fortunate
that Nando’s embrace design variety and diversity
within their restaurants and allow us designers the
autonomy and freedom to come up with new and
exciting lighting to enhance and add to the interiors.”
“We’re delighted that our LED filament lamps are
proving to be such a hit with Nando’s restaurants and
their customers,” says Saima Shafi, Marketing Director
at Bright Goods. “We’re constantly being told that not
only do they look stylish but that they have captured
the warm, cosy glow usually only found from energyhungry incandescent. They are also recognised as
being much more robust and reliable than tungsten
and halogen lamps. Add to that their fantastic energy
saving properties and it’s easy to see why more and
more bar, restaurant and hospitality chains are relying
on Bright Goods as their first choice.”
