Renowned furniture manufacturer A T Cooray (Pvt) Ltd is nearing its 90th year in a journey that began when its founder A.T. Cooray who hailed from the southern parts of then Ceylon began trying his hand at carpentry.  Explaining the background of the company as it enters a decade that would end with a century of serving the nation, the company said intricately designed home furniture soon became Mr. Cooray’s forte as he began to expand his workshop and hire other skilled artisans from the South.

“Over the years that followed, A.T. Cooray furnishers became known not only for its distinct designs but also for the high-quality of each piece of furniture they turned out. As news spread throughout the country about the bespoke furniture, A.T. Cooray soon found himself spreading his wares to Colombo, Kandy and Kegalle with new showrooms being opened in 1946,” the media release said.

Today, recognised as the preferred choice for office furniture by many of the blue-chip companies and large conglomerates operating in the island, A.T. Cooray says it is also fast becoming the go-to place for start-up ventures looking for value-for-money.  The fact that the furnisher still operates out of one ultra-modern showroom in Colombo 3 is testimony to the emphasis they place on personalised service. Currently managed by the third generation of the Cooray family, the showroom invites customers to truly experience the office furniture of their choice before making that all important purchase.
