The Danesmoor Group
The Danesmoor Group is one of the UK's leading kitchen and bedroom businesses. We're a fifth generation, family-owned company with a long track record, but with a clear focus on what is next. Our ambition is to combine the stability, investment and long term thinking of a heritage business with the pace, mindset and capability of a modern, digital first organisation.
With a turnover of c.£70m and a strong reputation for service, innovation, design-led products and advanced UK manufacturing, we've built a solid platform across trade and retail channels. Today, the focus is firmly on the next stage of growth.
The group operates across multiple routes to market and audiences:
- PWS – a market-leading trade distributor operating at scale across the UK.
- Life Kitchens – a fast-growing kitchen manufacturer with a premium consumer brand with showrooms in Waterloo, Wimbledon and York, alongside established B2B trade channels.
- Danesmoor Agency
Together, this creates a genuinely interesting and complex environment spanning B2B and B2C, trade and retail, design, manufacturing and distribution – all within one group.
