Contract furniture manufacturer Barons Contract Furniture has announced a significant expansion of its Leyland operations, acquiring the neighbouring unit to create an enlarged, state-of-the-art facility – a strategic investment reflecting the company’s continued growth and long-term vision.

Following a sustained period of success and increasing demand, the business has secured the unit adjacent to its existing Leyland site. Having outgrown its long-standing Lytham St Annes head office and manufacturing unit, Barons is now moving to a larger, purpose-built environment that can support the next chapter of its evolution.

The development introduces a state-of-the-art distribution and manufacturing hub, a refined head office, and an exceptional customer showroom. The showroom provides an immersive setting where clients can experience the quality of Barons’ furniture firsthand.

With over 50 years of manufacturing expertise, British craftsmanship remains the foundation of their approach. Every product is designed and manufactured with strength, comfort, and quality in mind, allowing their furniture to perform brilliantly in demanding environments. Supported by full in-house control, the business continues to deliver the consistency, reliability, and attention to detail customers depend upon. Overall, this expansion reinforces Barons’ commitment to building lasting partnerships and creating furniture that has shaped the company’s reputation for decades.

Bringing operations together at Leyland creates a centralised hub for logistics, customer support, and collaboration, significantly enhancing workflow as well as providing a high-quality environment for employees, as well as an exceptional showroom for customers.

The showroom is a powerful reflection of Barons’ approach, giving customers the opportunity to see the materials, finishes, and design details firsthand whilst benefiting from the guidance of a team that understands the real-world environments the furniture is created for.

Managing Director Garry Smith commented: “This investment marks a defining moment for Barons Contract Furniture. Our growth is the result of decades of dedication to quality, trusted relationships, and an unwavering focus on our customers.

“Every element of this expansion, from the purpose-built distribution and manufacturing hub to our elevated showroom experience, has been designed to support excellence at every stage of the customer journey. As we continue to grow, our commitment to British craftsmanship, beautifully made furniture, and dependable service is stronger than ever.”
