Building On Our History
Simons
is a long established family business that has been in existence
for over 102 years. Founded by Davis Simons in 1900 after
emigrating from his native Russia, he created a hard working, energetic
company which is still apparent today. Succeeded by his son, Jack,
the company was first established as a manufacturer and supplier
to the reproduction furniture industry.
His three sons, Stephen, Howard and Brian continued
to develop the business with the same work ethic and entered into
the picture framing industry in the 1970's.
Occupying some 400,000 square feet and employing
over 500 people, Simons are now established as market leader. In
the 1980's Emafyl was established with its production of extruded
polystyrene and in 1996 received the Queen's Award for Export Achievement.
Since then the fourth generation, Daniel, Anthony,
Robert and Amanda have joined the company to ensure the family commitment
and service to our customers continues well into the 21st century
.
We have never forgotten that a company is only
as successful as its customers.
