The Bureau Group has unveiled plans to create the UK’s first large-scale circular marketplace for commercial furniture, following its acquisition of used furniture business assets from 2ndHnd.
The move brings furniture remanufacture in-house for the first time at the Edinburgh-based workplace furniture procurement firm, after it bought the Dundonald-based business.
2ndHnd entered administration on 17 October, but now five jobs at the company have been secured, with the potential for new roles being created - including apprenticeships - as Bureau Group sets about building the UK’s largest re-manufacture facility for office furniture.
