A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Ananth Murthy and his wife. I was were immediately captivated by their tale of how they founded The Timber Maker and their dedication to making it a sustainable and socially responsible company. We also love the furniture they are creating.  Many people reevaluated their priorities during lock-down; we examined the decisions we are making regarding our personal and professional life as well as the goods we buy. Many of us no longer feel the need for mass consumerism; instead, we are searching for better-quality products that are long-lasting, made from sustainable resources, and produced by workers who are appreciated and well-treated. We want to support ethical businesses.  The story of The Timber Maker is one that many businesses old and new can learn from. Care about how you make your products, the sustainability of your supply chain and how you treat your workforce.
