Nienkämper, a company born from entrepreneur Klaus Nienkämper’s drive and determination, never compromises, and it is this approach that has earned it high praise, a long list of awards and decades of success. “We are committed to being at the forefront of innovation; we never compromise and push the boundaries of technology,” he explains. “This is my vision; it has been very successful, and it continues to this day.”

Klaus believes a furniture company succeeds when it meets customer needs, while pursuing the highest standards in design and manufacturing. This philosophy forms the cornerstone of his organization.

Thanks to this approach, Nienkamper’s profile has continued to grow, both domestically and internationally. The company, which started life in 1968, is now recognized for producing some of the best corporate and residential furniture on the market.

Today, Nienkamper employs 200 people and sells to the Americas, Europe and the Middle East, where it is currently working on a large project in the UAE. The company is forward-thinking and never looks back. “When I came to Canada there was very little in terms of contemporary furniture; I recognized the need to target this niche and we have continued to develop ever since,” says Klaus, who first came to the country in 1960.

“Today, we consider ourselves to be a market leader, producing some of the best corporate and residential furniture available on the market – that is our forte and we count numerous Fortune 500 companies amongst our core clientele.” In fact, without Nienkämper, and Klaus’ vision, it is debatable that the boardrooms of today would look as they do now.
