We are thrilled to announce that we have been awarded ‘Best Trade Association/Organisation’ in the 2024 Furniture News Readers’ Choice Awards.

Now in their fourth year, the awards have become an important seal of approval from Furniture News’ readership, proudly displayed by the winners, far and wide.

Jonny Westbrooke, CEO at The Furniture Makers’ Company, said: “We are delighted to have been awarded ‘Best Trade Association/Organisation’ in the 2024 Furniture News Readers’ Choice Awards. As the City of London livery company and charity for the furnishing industry, we are a unique organisation, offering individuals and companies an opportunity to network and support our welfare and educational charitable activities. Being recognised in the 2024 awards, follows a period of record corporate membership growth in the past six months. It is fantastic that more and more individuals and businesses are recognising the vital work we perform, and this award underpins that growing sentiment.”

Paul Farley, editor in chief at Furniture News, said: “Our annual Readers’ Choice Awards give the trade a chance to nominate their favourite suppliers and business partners, and topping a category is a major achievement, of which each of this year’s winners should be very proud.

“For The Furniture Makers’ Company, coming first in the Best Trade Association/Organisation category is a clear signal that the work the livery company/charity is doing is making a real impact across the trade – on its members, and on the many people within the industry who benefit, in myriad ways. 

“A huge well done to all involved – keep up the good work!”
