A Brief History

____________

Bymacks Upholstery Ltd moved from London to Dursley in Gloucestershire in the early 1960s to manufacture furniture.  They soon became a major employer in the area with some 260 people working for them.

Bymacks was eventually sold and a new business was established at Saul some 20 years ago and, as tastes and markets changed, switched from manufacture to retail 10 years ago.

Even though they no longer manufacture furniture themselves, John and Robert are still keen to promote British makes.  Every fabric, suite and bed is made in the UK, as is much of the leather and wooden furniture on sale in the store.
