Gascoigne Leather Furniture

Gascoigne Leather Furniture was founded in Perth, Western Australia by Kim Gascoigne and Helen Gascoigne in 1976. Originally with 130 employees, Gascoigne Leather Furniture began operating out of a small factory in Willetton before relocating to a larger factory in Midvale several years later. In February 1999 the Midvale factory suffered $1.5 million worth of damage following an extensive fire started accidentally by two teenage employees.

In 2000, the company made the decision to begin manufacturing in Malaysia, with a factory controlled by Michael Gascoigne. The Malaysian factory is currently the company's primary manufacturer, with over 50% of Gascoigne Leather Furniture's products being manufactured by the Gascoigne Group. The company has also opened the first of five retail stores, Gascoigne Leather Centre in Osborne Park, Western Australia.
