Horatio Myer, the Great Grandfather of our present Chairman Jonathan Myer and Managing Director Rodney Myer founded the business in 1876. The Company occupied premises in Vauxhall Walk, London (above). It employed 19 people and had an annual turnover of £6,000.
Through the reign of Queen Victoria into the 20th Century and through two world wars, Myer’s continued to grow and prosper. From the iron bedsteads of the Victorian era to the first divan beds, Myer’s were at the forefront of bed design and technology.
In 1962 the Huntingdon site was opened, employing 70 people and producing 750 bed sets a week.
From 1962 to 1982 Huntingdon and Vauxhall continued to manufacture beds and other furniture such as display cabinets and coffee tables.
In 1982 Vauxhall closed and all production was transferred to Huntingdon.
In 1986 Myer’s bought Staples which has the Royal Warrant to produce and supply beds to the Royal family.
Since then the Site has expanded to what you see today, employing 600 people and occupying 300,000 sqft on a 13 acre plot. This makes Myer's one of the largest manufacturing businesses in Huntingdon.
