West Midlands-based family run furniture manufacturer, Sofa Connections, has continued on its expansion journey with the appointment of two trusted and respected agents in the industry.
Husband and wife team Dave and Debbie Jenkins have recently joined the white label sofa maker and will be representing Sofa Connections in East and West Midlands.
Both Dave and Debbie have been a prominent team in the East and West Midlands for the past 20 years, yet their combined experience in the furniture trade stretches to over 60 years!
Commenting on joining the Sofa Connections team, Debbie shared: “It’s such a great team, and Dave and I have known Sarah and Matt for many years, so it’s great that we can work together with a true quality British manufacturer.”
Dave echoed the sentiment: “The whole industry is changing, and there is an ever-increasing demand from retailers to create their own brand, with exclusive designs, fabrics and marketing, something that Sofa Connections does better than most others. I’m delighted to represent this fast-growing business.
“It’s like ‘two for the price of one’ and can only be a good thing ensuring our manufacturers have outstanding representation and retail partners have a team that will make a positive difference to their business!”
Owners, and also a husband-and-wife team, Matt and Sarah Oakley, have welcomed Debbie and Dave into the fold with open arms. “We welcome Dave and Debbie and look forward to our next phase of growth as our operation continues to expand,” Sarah said.
With Dave and Debbie firmly onboard, the focus turns to the upcoming January Furniture Show, which takes place from 19-22 January 2025 at Birmingham’s NEC. Matt, who has been designing furniture since he was just 18 years old, added: “All focus right now is making sure all the display orders get delivered in time for the winter sale as we prepare for the NEC where we’re showing in Hall 1. We can’t wait already!”
