History
Sawade Curtains and Blinds was started in 1960, working as a workroom by Colin and Rae Sawade. In 1967, they purchased the original Mullers Road premises, opening a retail outlet with the workroom attached. In 1989, building was commenced on a new premises behind the original building. This building was then removed and became car parking. The new building was opened in February 1991. In June 2001, Colin and Rae decided it was time to retire and this building was sold. The business was taken over by son Brian and his partner Anette and moved to its current location on Payneham Road at Glynde.
