The Bombay Company

The Bombay Company was founded in 1975 and began as a mail order business based in New Orleans. The “Bombay Company” name was intended to conjure up the glory days of the British Empire and the jewel of the empire, Bombay.

The company sold mahogany finished reproductions of 18th and 19th century English furniture. Small wooden furniture pieces such as occasional accent tables, plant stands and butlers’ tables were advertised in magazines and shipped to customers in boxes ready to be assembled, usually by just screwing on the legs. In February of 2008 the business was bought by a privately held, family owned company, renamed Bombay & Co., Inc. and is now 100% Canadian owned and operated.

Bombay & Co., Inc. operates 48 stores across Canada and offers large furniture, small, occasional furniture, wall decor and home accessories. In true Bombay tradition many styles are still flat packed and require assembly. Style and value continue to be the cornerstone of the business and Bombay & Co., Inc. is proud to be a part of your home.
