The History of Furnicarft
Furnicraft has been manufacturing furniture from their premises in the coastal City of Cape Town since 1974. This means that they are approaching half a century making the furniture that has come to take pride of place in many a home in South Africa and beyond. The reason why they have become one of the biggest furniture companies in South Africa owes to their social responsibility.
They also work with a knowledge that the communities in which they work, rely on the forests for their livelihood. As a company that operates in a country where a significant population still lives in rural areas, they understand the importance of forests.
The operations of Furnicraft are driven by a simple mantra, “We make it ourselves, buy directly & save”. This means that every Furnicraft shop you walk into is a factory shop. You do not have to pay for the costs of middlemen.
