Organization Overview
For over seven decades, our innovative mentality has helped us deliver outstanding products for our clients. Haworth has grown over multiple generations of family leadership, powered by an entrepreneurial spirit.
In 1948, G.W. Haworth invested funds from his parents’ life savings to turn his garage woodworking shop into a full-time business. Within a few years, G.W. began making office furniture. His son, Dick Haworth, invented pre-wired panels, a significant innovation in workplace technology. That invention propelled Haworth into an international company with a diverse portfolio of products over the next few decades.
Dick became chairman in 1994 and eventually passed the torch to his son, Matthew Haworth, in 2009. Under Matthew’s leadership, Haworth has continued to create products that push the workplace forward, acquired legacy design brands, and solidified our commitment to sustainability.
