I am very happy I found this forum. I am not strictly a cabinet maker, but a furniture designer, with a large portfolio of regular clients, mainly in London. I have been based on East/West Sussex border for over 10 years, previously in London and Scotland.
I have been designing and specifying bespoke, mainly fitted furniture for a number of years. I have always subcontracted all the fabricating of all furniture to a couple of workshops up North.
For quite some time now I have been thinking about an opportunity to set up a business partnership with a Sussex/Kent or Surrey based cabinet maker to deliver quality projects for my London projects. I have no experience (or desire) to run a workshop, but I have plenty of work coming, good grasp of business and accounts (I trained as a lawyer and a tax specialist in my previous life) and I am pretty good in sales. I really would love to find a business partner/partners, a talented cabinet maker/makers who is/are fantastic at making furniture. I imagine this would be someone who has just set up or is planning a new start-up and would love to ensure a good stream of work and help with running a business (I have over 20 years experience in business) to share in good quality and profitable work. I have a confirmed projects worth over £150K to be made before the Summer with more in the pipeline, have reliable fitting team in London, Van and tools.
If anyone from the community is interested or knows someone who may be a good fit, please contact me through a DM.
Thank you
