The workplace furniture industry continues to evolve as organizations seek more flexibility, resiliency, and local manufacturing options. A new strategic partnership between Haworth and Tayco is an exciting development that strengthens these capabilities across North America.

Haworth has announced a strategic investment in Tayco Office Furnishings, a Toronto-based manufacturer of office furniture and casegoods. This partnership expands Haworth’s portfolio and manufacturing reach while allowing Tayco to continue operating independently with the same leadership, team, and business model.

For organizations planning new workplaces or refreshing existing environments, this investment brings new opportunities for access to high-quality, Canadian-manufactured furniture solutions.
