DFS are the leading retailer of upholstered
furniture in the United Kingdom currently
operating out of 97 stores totalling 1.4 million sq ft.
DFS (formerly Direct Furnishing Supplies)
was established in 1969.

  The company is a clear UK market leader with a 28% share of the estimated
  £2.77 billion upholstered furniture market in 2012, which was approximately four times
  that of any other upholstered furniture specialist.

  All of the products DFS sell are made to order and, as a result, there is minimal
  exposure to inventory risk. They have three upholstered furniture manufacturing
  facilities, all of which are located in the United Kingdom. Sales densities are significantly
  higher than their rivals in the furniture sector:
