Where it started

It all started back in 2006 when our parents, Steve and Colette, set up Furniture Traders, a family-run furniture shop, based right here in Thirsk, Yorkshire. Growing up, weekends were often spent in the shop, helping out on deliveries, and watching Dad chat to customers like they were old friends. 
​
When we (Josh and Jake) finished our studies, stepping into the family business felt like the most natural path in the world. We officially joined in 2016 and 2020, bringing fresh energy and ideas while staying true to the values our parents built the business on. These days, Mum and Dad have taken a well-earned step back – although they're never far away, usually busy looking after our growing herd of Wilson boys and embracing their new favourite roles as Gigi and PopPop!

A family business,
through and through

As we found our feet in the family business, we quickly realised we wanted to take things one step further. We wanted to create something of our own, something that carried the same dedication to quality and service that Furniture Traders was built on, but with our own stamp.

And just like that, The Yorkshire Mattress Co. began its journey. We set out to create a collection of handcrafted mattresses, made here in Yorkshire, using the finest materials, and built to last.

Our commitment
to quality and service

We don’t cut corners. Every mattress we make is built with care, using quality materials and the kind of craftsmanship that takes years to master. But just as important to us is how we treat people. Whether you're buying a single mattress or fitting out a luxury hotel, we believe in being helpful, honest, and fair.

Supporting British made

All our mattresses are handcrafted right here in Yorkshire and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Keeping things local means we can keep a close eye on quality, support skilled jobs in our community, and stay true to our roots. It also means less miles travelled and more pride in what we produce. When you buy from us, you’re not just getting a great night’s sleep – you’re backing British manufacturing and a business that cares about doing things properly.

Working with the best

We’ve had the pleasure of working with some amazing hospitality businesses, including Grantley Hall, one of the UK’s leading luxury hotels. It’s a partnership that reflects our dedication to excellence and attention to detail. Every day, we strive to be among the best in British mattress manufacturing, earning our place through hard work, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
