About us
Read the story of Niemi Family companies – from their inception to the standards and values still guiding the companies today. Explore here the operation and the core story of Niemen Tehtaat, Niemi Sofa and Niemi Vietnam.
Niemen Tehtaat has been manufacturing and delivering durable and sustainable furniture solutions for Finnish public spaces, homes and various environments for decades.
Founded in 1898, Niemen Tehtaat continues the carpentry tradition already in the fourth generation. The family business is the oldest and still one of the largest Finnish furniture manufacturers.
Domestic design, CNC-controlled woodworking machines and the use of high-quality materials create a solid foundation for the company’s operations. The company believes in competence, quality and persistent work. A characteristic of Niemen Tehtaat is that the company and its products can adapt to the demands of the times.
Today, the collection consists of, among other things, home furniture, kindergarten, lounge and office furniture. Large project deliveries to the marine industry are also part of the company’s operations.
Since its founding, Niemi Sofa has been passionately committed to creating high-quality and stylish upholstered furniture, especially sofas, but also a wide range of other types of furniture. Niemi Sofa combines craftsmanship expertise with modern industry trends and functional design, offering customers unique furniture solutions tailored to their needs.
Niemi Sofa is particularly proud of its agility. Speed, customizing the furniture or the overall furniture solution according to the customer’s wishes and sticking to the agreed schedule have been the cornerstones of the operation since the beginning.The company’s customers are mainly public space furnishers and interior architects, as well as home furniture retailers. A significant part of the production consists of special projects – sofas and other customized seating solutions for ships, restaurants and other public spaces.
It is worth concentrating expertise where it exists. This idea led Niemen Tehtaat to Vietnam in the 21st century when international support was wanted for traditional domestic furniture manufacturing.
In Vietnam, the production of garden furniture first started in cooperation with a Danish supplier, but after a few years the decision was made to establish our own factory.
At the subsidiary, Niemi Vietnam factory, operations have been managed by Tuyet Nguyen since its establishment, i.e. since 2007.
There are approximately 15 employees in the factory’s administration and 75 in production. The subcontracting network includes suppliers from small workshops to larger factories.
