Jan 27, 2016. /Lesprom Network/. The Danish furniture manufacturer Tvilum is experiencing increasing growth on the global market for ready-to-assemble furniture, and as a result Tvilum will be establishing new production facilities in Poland, the company said in the press release received by Lesprom Network.

“This establishment will bring us closer to our customers in Europe, where more than 60 % of our products are sold,” says Andrew Long, CEO of Tvilum. “In addition to this, our largest supplier of raw material, Kronospan, is located close to our factory in Poland. These two factors will together reduce our logistics costs considerably and it is important for Tvilum.”

Tvilum plans to establish approximately 80 jobs in Szczecinek in Western Poland. Andrew Long emphasizes that Tvilum’s Danish production and warehouse facilities still have their full justification.

He states: “We have excellent skills among our Danish employees, and they help develop Tvilum every day. Supply, demand and market conditions will dictate the long term plans for our Danish facilities, however, we fully expect to maintain operations in Denmark in the years to come. We see this expansion as part of being extremely proactive and investing in our future growth.”
