Best of British

British furniture manufacturing continues to prosper regardless of recent setbacks. We, like many of our customers want to help protect the British industry values that many of our manufacturers have maintained for decades. Last year we proudly supported the Buy British Furniture campaign, to promote and help protect British manufacturing. The British Furniture Confederation and many of our suppliers have launched this campaign to raise the message: ‘Buy the Best, Buy British, Save Jobs’. To empathise our commitment to the cause, here are the manufacturers that we celebrate and define the Best of British.
