Origin: Great Britain

The British commercial furniture business is alive and thriving, with possibly more UK manufacture than most of us would imagine.

Supplying offices, schools, hospitals and more, we help these businesses to find and negotiate London showrooms.

We have worked with clients such as Gresham Office Furniture and Christopher Farr to purchase showrooms and with Bisley, Spacestor and other substantial businesses to find showrooms to rent.
