Hotel experience meets international trade

Hotel operations and international trade, working together

Our story

Tāne Furnishings started in 2025 in Richmond, BC. Andrew had seen from the hotel side how hard it is to get good furniture made overseas without paying a chain of middlemen. Alvin knew how to find the right factories and get goods shipped. So they set up to do it directly. Today we work with clients across Canada, the USA and Europe.

How we work

We don't run our own factory or showroom. We work with specialist factories in China that we've selected for each type of product. That lets us match every order to the factory best suited to it, at the right price, and ship it straight to you.

What you can expect

Straight answers on price and lead times. One contact from start to finish. Every order is inspected by our team before it ships. Outstanding after-sales service, long after delivery. We only take on work we're confident we can deliver.

Our name comes from Tāne, the Māori god of forests and birds. It reflects where good furniture starts, with natural materials and real craftsmanship.
