About Us...
Launched in 2015 by Monty and Dan at the age of 17, Furniturebox is an expanding online furniture business dedicated to beautiful, quality and affordable products backed up with exceptional customer service: something we believe is responsible for our fast growth.
Sign in
Monty started selling items online when he was 12, where his eyes were opened to all the possibilities. By the time he was 17 he decided to give online furniture retail a go, as he could see a massive gap in the market. He roped his best mate Dan into joining him and Furniturebox was born. At the beginning, it was just the two of them, doing everything from sales to customer service, picking orders for dispatch and loading up/unloading containers. Things have changed quite a bit since then, but the can-do attitude has stuck.
