A quarter-century into the new millennium, Furniture News is here with another bumper January edition bursting with insights and products.
Bedding venture 100% Comfort is the brainchild of Mike Clare, Greg Suthern and Nick Worthington, who have been instrumental in defining the UK’s furniture retail landscape – our exclusive interview reveals the conception of their new enterprise.
Customer champion Kate Hardcastle returns to share her vision of the sector’s future, while top tastemakers share their predictions of which trends will dominate furnishings in 2025-26.
We also explore the drive to greater Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) and the role ethnic minorities play in the UK furniture workforce, and preview the upcoming INDX Furniture and Spring Fair – plus our huge January Furniture Show feature.
Other highlights include updates from Qualita, Rauch, Claimlane and Kyoto, sales tips from our regular columnists, the story behind Carpe Diem Beds’ cover shot, and suggestions of where the industry’s biggest disconnect lies.
It’s the definitive publication for a defining month of business!
