Joseph James Furniture Outlet was incorporated in December 2019, just 3 months after Joseph and James finished their A-Levels at Manchester Grammar School. With an early passion for business, starting a company seemed the obvious thing to do after leaving school. After experimenting with selling a few products, they found the most interest in the sofa market. 

Joseph says, "It was an old industry that didn't seem to have followed the fast-delivery trend along with the other retail sectors. We were shocking our first few customers with the rapid delivery we were offering, same day in some cases. It meant we were able to offer a cheaper and faster alternative to consumers, so we were confident that we were doing something right!"

Just under 2 years after they started, they had moved into an 11,000sqft warehouse and had 4 staff members join their team. Their success was then documented to the public in a glowing newspaper article .

Joseph and James hope over the coming years they will be able to open multiple retail locations and become the biggest furniture outlet in the country.
