Held at Roccia’s Design Centre on Queen Street, Preston, the former world champion and boxing legend provided insight into his career and signed complimentary copies of his book, ‘Everybody Has a Plan Until They Get Punched in the Face: 12 Things Boxing Teaches You About Life.’

During its 30-year history, the business has supported international and local charities, clubs and initiatives.

More recently they include the likes of Bolton Hospice, Rosemere Cancer Foundations, St Catherine’s Hospice, and Chorley Youth Zone.

It has also backed grass root sports from boxing talent, Khalid Majeed to Astley Bridge Cricket Club, Longridge Cricket Club and Leyland Albion FC, alongside a long-standing relationship with the Sir Tom Finney Foundation.

As part of the 30-year celebrations, for a limited time, Roccia is offering exclusive “Anniversary offers” including 30% off selected luxury wall and floor tiles, a free backlit mirror with every bathroom purchase and up to 30% off luxury kitchen appliances.

Founded in 1994 by Yakub Patel as Tile Mart, the business rebranded to Roccia in 2016 to reflect its development and expansion into the luxury tile and bathroom market.

Yakub’s five sons currently run the family business which now specialises in tiles, bathrooms and kitchens and claims to boast the largest independent tile & bath showroom.

Its flagship showroom in Preston features Jacob and Sons Kitchens, Uno Windows & Doors, Bespoke Fireplaces, as well as lighting and furniture concession Dream Interiors.

Zabir Patel said: “What a journey it’s been and continues to be.  We’re still driven by the same passion and values upon which we were founded, namely Family, Excellence and Inspiration.

“We’ve picked up a few grey hairs along the way, but our unrivalled dedication and commitment to our people, products, place and customers hasn’t changed one bit”.
