Our take

Based in London, family business Joseph Joseph pairs Cambridge University business and a Central St. Martins Product Design graduates into a sleek and functional homeware and product manufacturing company. Founded in 2003, kitchen and homeware designed by Joseph Joseph are now available in leading department stores, independent shops, eCommerce channels, and in over 100 countries across the globe.

Joseph Joseph champions products that are effective and striking, using its blend of business and creative savvy to keep things stylish yet practical. The same can be said of its work culture, with the company announcing in 2023 that it has partnered with performance management and employee retention platform OpenBlend to manage its workforce. This highlights the company’s keen eye for tech innovations to enhance its activities.

With many awards under its belt, Joseph Joseph is still keeping a firm grip on its outgoings in light of inflation and economic trade stresses, all whilst reducing its packaging and carbon footprint. With rising costs throughout its supply chain, Joseph Joseph continues to keep its operations as efficient as its products.
