About Us

The fastest growing office furniture distribution and recycling network

The Office Guild was conceptualized by a group of office furniture professionals in 1999. We sought a means of linking similar businesses to a common set of goals and standards. There needed to be a better means of pooling and distributing information about cubicles and office furniture inventories from various regions. How could we bring buyers and sellers together in a better way?

We agreed that honest, accurate and reliable information should be the cornerstone of the concept. The development process became an effort of merging industry knowledge and experience with state of the art internet technology.

Conceptual and technical planning resulted in the launch of the Office Guild website in June of 2001. The site has since undergone a myriad of changes and upgrades. The system is a work in progress, evolving through continual collaboration of its membership. New ideas and enhancements are continually being integrated.

We truly hope you find the methodology and spirit behind The Office Guild both useful and profitable for your business.
