The January Furniture Show, taking place at the NEC Birmingham from 19th-22nd January, has announced its renewed partnership with The Furniture Makers’ Company for 2025, continuing a collaboration dedicated to nurturing innovation and supporting the future of the furniture industry.
The partnership will once again highlight the Young Furniture Makers Showcase, which will take centre stage at the Networking Hub in Hall 5. The showcase will display a selection of furniture from previous students and graduates who exhibited at the 2024 Young Furniture Makers exhibition, an annual event organised by The Furniture Makers’ Company.
This ongoing partnership reflects the shared dedication of JFS and The Furniture Makers’ Company to supporting innovation and nurturing the next generation of designers, makers and creators. By providing opportunities to connect with industry leaders and gain exposure, both organisations are investing in the future of the furniture industry at one of its key events.
Brian Ahern, master of The Furniture Makers’ Company, comments: "We are delighted to be named the charity partner for the January Furniture Show. This partnership offers a wonderful platform to advance our mission of supporting the welfare and development of the furnishing industry. We are incredibly grateful to the show organisers for their generosity and commitment to our cause by showcasing a selection of pieces from some of the talented young designers who exhibited at our Young Furniture Makers exhibition last year.”
Zoe Bonser, portfolio director of the January Furniture Show, adds: “We are delighted to partner once again with The Furniture Makers’ Company. The Young Furniture Makers Showcase is a key part of our event, providing a platform for emerging talent to gain recognition and connect with industry leaders. Supporting young innovators is crucial to the future of the furniture industry, and we’re proud to play a role in championing their creativity and ambition.”
