Our Story.

Kicking things off in 2010, Simon & Steve went about starting Auckland’s best Commercial Furniture Installation company. Not long thereafter spanning into freight, relocations & property services. Whilst also expanding into the rest of New Zealand with support from Pete & Mark respectively.

At the heart of our business, we are installation specialists of world-class commercial furniture. And whilst, our piece of the puzzle may seem simple, we are often entrusted with delivering the final experience for end users as a project comes to a close. Our mission is to Build Better Workspaces not only for our clients but our employees too.

We’re proud to be 100% New Zealand Owned & Operated.
With a team spanning the length of the North Island we have capacity to service all projects, whether you're setting up a cozy office in the Bay of Plenty or multiple floors in one of our major cities. CFI has the resources, experience and positive attitude to get your project across the line.

We believe that quality projects don’t happen by chance, it happens when we all work together.
