office furniture

Look, I’ve spent the last five years with my head inside the global office furniture supply chain. Not in a showroom, not in a marketing meeting, but on factory floors, in shipping containers, and on third-party inspection calls. I’ve watched trends come and go, but the conversations I have with buyers—facility managers, procurement teams, interior […]

I’ve watched procurement managers lose sleep over spec sheets that don’t match reality. I’ve sat in showrooms where the chair feels like a dream, then visited warehouses where the same model arrives with casters that wobble and gas
