Who We Are
About Us
Two Decades in The Furniture Trade
Who we are.
We are a family-run furniture Agency based in the UK. Litmus furniture was founded in 2004 by Peter Hewitt, Peter saw an opportunity to grow a brand with minimal presence in the UK at that time. A partnership was made with Wiemann.
With Peter’s wealth of knowledge working with Dorlux for 10 years and his position as Chairman for the Sleep Council, Peter was able to establish an experienced and well-respected UK and Irish sales team who offered comprehensive product training, marketing support with a Home Delivery and installation service.
Simon Hewitt is the Managing Director of Litmus furniture, joined Peter in 2014. Simon’s experience at Proctor & Gamble, Diageo and Red Bull offer sales and marketing experience in abundance.
The secret to their success is developing good relationships with their suppliers and their customers, which carries through to their own sales team. Listen, learn, and adapt.
Says Simon: “We’ve loads of experience but we’ve also got loads of ambition. If what we are doing isn’t what you want, come and talk to us.”
