immovables

We design, make, move, retail

creating

We design and make our own products, from many raw materials to the last stitch or screw. We orchestrate their movement to the markets, and retail them in spaces we control.

This integrated design is an article of faith, as we deliver on our mission to support and restore our customers through work and rest.

This design conserves value across the chain from shopfloor to the shop and makes innovation viable. It’s at the root of why we’re comfortably ahead.

Our brands share these immovables; they design, make, move and retail the products that customers rely on.
