About
We started in 1984 as retailer in the UK, with one small store, on a farm, in the middle of the English rural countryside.
That business grew to become a multiple retailer, and by 1990 we were designing and importing our own furniture and decor items.
By 1995 we were represented with our own group of stores, and also had multiple large home concessions in a major Department Store Chain retailing Bedroom, Dining Room and furniture and accessories. We traded as La Maison @ Debenhams and PFY Group and we introduced our first significant Fragranced candles ranges through our subsidiary Reducta of Quill Street, in London.
By 2000 we were trading as designers manufacturers of fine furniture, from England, Indonesia and India, Premium tabletop, and decor giftware (from England, USA, Portugal, Greece, Spain, Italy, Philippines, India, and China) supplying multiple retailers throughout Europe, and our own stores. The retail and wholesale group was sold between 2008 and 2010 to facilitate a refocus on Design, Procurement and Distribution.
In 2010 we relocated our primary Trading, Procurement, Design, and Manufacturing business to Australia to be in the same time zone as our Factory partners, with our International logistics team based in Melbourne, Head Office in Perth and Export Team in Adelaide.
From 2011 we launched our international trading entity helping Manufacturers and Retailers to come together. Our clients became the exclusive Distributors for Global Brands within their own territories and we facilitated many long term international trading relationships.
We specialise in minimising the risk of moving commodities from Asia to your home country:
In collaboration with US based Insurers and Global Funders, we have a program where a buyer can secure the production they require through our procurement team, arrange all the Logistics, and pay for the goods when they arrive at the local port.
Our Collaboration with a Global Forwarder means that we can provide Proof of Life Videos, and attend every container stuffing for our clients. We can through UCM,United Cargo Management (part of the Marco Polo Group) provide air-charter service for fast delivery.
Now, we just focus on driving sustainable, transparent profitable opportunity for our clients in all regions
