Man Wah: A Global Home Furnishing Powerhouse Takes Center Stage

Founded in Hong Kong in 1992, Man Wah has consistently focused on sofas, mattresses, cabinet furniture, furniture components, and smart home solutions. The company has established numerous subsidiaries, branch offices, and affiliated companies in core economic regions including the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, with operations spanning four continents: Asia, America, Europe, and Australia.

What makes Man Wah particularly noteworthy for international buyers is its proven track record – the company has maintained the top position in global functional sofa sales for six consecutive years and remains the only Asian enterprise to rank among the top ten furniture suppliers in the demanding American market.

With roots as a modest Shenzhen furniture workshop, Man Wah’s steadfast commitment to excellence has transformed the company into a force to be reckoned with in the industry. While specializing in cutting-edge functional sofas, Man Wah has also skillfully ventured into the realm of bedding products. The company’s flagship brands – CHEERS and First Class – offer retailers reliable, high-performing functional sofas and complementary pieces that have consistently resonated with consumers worldwide.

Man Wah insists on selecting environmentally friendly raw materials from Fortune 500 companies and adopting advanced production processes. The company has imported multiple sets of world-class production equipment from Italy, Germany, Japan, and other countries, creating innovative “green production lines” while boldly adopting new technologies, materials, and processes, continuously improving digital process management and quality inspection systems.
