Heritage

Principal Furniture is the original supplier of folding furniture, but did you know we were originally part of a luggage manufacturer?

The Samsonite Furniture Co was part of the very famous Samsonite luggage family but after many iterations of owners, came to be an independent furniture brand, well known for the quality of its folding furniture.

The Samsonite Furniture Co ceased to exist in 2000 and Principal Furniture was born, becoming part of the Morleys family in 2006. Being part of a company like Morleys, who have a rich history of furniture supply, meant that Principal were able to expand the range it offered beyond folding furniture, sourcing, and developing products for the hospitality and leisure industries, as well as for community ventures
and outdoors.
