The BFS Barker Furniture Group combines in-house manufacturing with high quality furniture imports, logistics, consulting, project management, and e-commerce to ensure high-quality production, efficient delivery, and client satisfaction.

Manufacturing

Operating out of 13,500 m² of commercial/industrial space, the group’s in-house diversified manufacture and specialisation, is the powerhouse of the businesses.

The three manufacturing facilities – woodwork, metal engineering & upholstery factories – allow the company to be in full control of all processes and totally self-sufficient. This speeds up production, ensures cost-effectiveness, and achieves high quality standards.

All three of our manufacturing facilities have experienced management teams, supported by skilled machinists & committed to on-time, first time, only-time outcomes. All critical departments have duplicate machinery in case of machine breakdowns and our facilities are backed up with full off-grid generators to mitigate load shedding or power failures.

Importing

International Furniture Portfolio

Across the group, imports have become an ever increasing and more significant part of the groups business. This includes both finished products as well as exclusive components that form part of our local manufacture and assembly offering.

We currently import some of the worlds leading furniture brands from the USA, Europe and the United Kingdom as well as more cost effective products the far east.

Exporting

South Africa as a bridge into Africa.

Due to the developing nature of the African continent  with a more underdeveloped manufacturing sector, South Africa and specifically the BFS-Barker Group support existing clients multinational operations in Africa as well as key strategic relationships within the region on both an ongoing and project basis.

Our vast product range across the group of both our local and imported goods provide a comprehensive offering for full project fit out requirements. This, together with our full project management, delivery and installation capability in Sub-Saharan Africa ensure we provide a convenient end to end solution.

Consulting

We bring our clients’ visions to life.

Qualified and experienced furniture consultants and project managers interact with client’s professional teams and decision makers, firstly to clearly understand the client’s needs, secondly to share current trends and practices within an ever evolving workspace environment and finally to convert visions, and objectives into reality.

Project management

We strive to ensure optimum effectiveness.

Depending on the scale and complexity of the project – our team of front line sales consultants, project managers and logistics team leaders collaborate with the client team and ancilliary parties to ensure that realistic lead times and installation schedules are adhered to and completed with optimum effectiveness.

E-commerce

Online shopping convenience.

Even though most of our client facing companies provide a relational and consultative sales service that are more focused on bespoke product solutions,  Spacery and Business Furniture Solutions offer a convenient online shopping experience for a more select, stock-supported product range.

Spacery is an online store offering more than furniture, but also sells lighting, rugs, artwork and accessories for the home and office.

Business Furniture Solutions as an added service to its consulting and ‘made to order’ offering also provide a select range of office furniture for immediate needs.

Both online platforms offer multiple payment options, for a quick hassle free purchase and a store to door delivery service in South Africa.
