Successful National supplier to many of the UK's finest Hotels
and Restaurants has recently expanded into the domestic market, due
to demand from diners.
Telford based 'The Chair People' have been specialist
manufacturers and suppliers of Bespoke Designer Furniture
throughout the UK since 2004, and due to increased consumer demand,
this month launched their new "@home" website and ranges
- creating the opportunity for home customers to generate
their own creations from any fabric, and apply it to any of their
chair styles - for either dining or relaxation, from their
thousands of styles and fabrics. "It's as easy as one two three",
comments Director Karl Owen, "we specialise in creating bespoke
pieces and ranges to the hospitality industry, and therefore have
to create quality long lasting furniture, as obviously
businesses such as restaurants and hotels experience high usage of
their furniture, but increasingly we were being approached by
diners, who had enquired in their favourite restaurant or hotel
where certain items were supplied from, and who wanted something
similar in their own home." Karl continues "With the trend of
more home dining as peoples' budgets are being squeezed, they now
prefer to invest the money in quality furniture that will last them
a long time, and to save money by entertaining friends at
home".
The Chair People have created a new dedicated area on their
extensive website for potential domestic customers to browse
fabrics, colours and chair styles to create their own and order on
line, or if they prefer a more personal touch, they can visit the
showroom on Halesfield in Telford, where Karl's domestic
team, headed up by Samantha Antonic (pictured with Karl) can talk
them through all the options, and bespoke any item for them, in a
very easy process. Sales executive Samantha Antonic (pictured)
comments "We have offered a very simple process for busy
restaurateurs and hoteliers to use, when choosing their preferred
styles, and fabrics, so we thought it sensible for the same tried
and tested system to be adopted for our domestic customers -
Upholstery options are almost endless as we deal with most of the
major UK fabric houses, offering everything from Chenilles to
Velvets and Leathers to Suedes. Alternatively, customers can supply
us with their own sourced materials to upholster with."
Delivery within the month! Certain styles can even be
manufactured from order to delivery within four weeks "sometimes
customers want a particular chair for a restaurant or hotel
opening, and often leave it to the last minute, so we can supply
many items within four weeks" Karl comments "I am sure our home
customers will be planning parties and events at short notice and
will want to benefit from the same rapid service, we will have to
see. Being bespoke, they can be assured of that real 'wow' factor
created from their own imagination"
