Eastbourne darts business celebrates success after 'amazing' first year

Pharaoh Darts, a darts points manufacturer and supplier, is run by business partners Simon Stohart and Matt Horscroft, operating from a workshop in Westham.

The business sells darts points, supplying some of the biggest players in the sport, including Fallon Sherrock MBE.

After beginning operating in 2024, Simon said that the first year of business had been ‘amazing’ with a second workshop set to open in Leeds.

Simon said: “I am a semi professional darts player and play on the PDC, I got tired of paying over the odds for darts equipment, it’s a sport that should be affordable for all, especially with the growth in talent of the younger players now since Luke Littler’s arrival.

"The first year has been amazing, and we never expected this interest and to grow so quickly.

"We now work with the three biggest darts suppliers in the world and have a team of eight people covering everything from manufacturing, designing, packaging, barcoding all done in house.

"We’re now opening a second workshop in Leeds to help with the work load, and growing business as we have now supplied over 25,000 sets in our first year.

"We are due to have our new larger website go live in two weeks which is a massive new redesign with all new features and we also have had some video adverts and interviews filmed and made.

"We are an online business and do not have a physical shop but you can purchase locally form the Darts Den on South Street.
