Seats Ahead
Established South African office-seating manufacturer and the anchor brand within the Seats Ahead group.
What this partner brings.
Seats Ahead was established in 1994 and operates from an approximately 10,000 m2 Johannesburg factory. It is the office-seating manufacturing brand within a broader group that also includes Furniko and Chair Express, which Urban Choices profiles separately because their ranges, sourcing models and catalogue identities differ.

- Executive and managerial chairs
- Operator, typist and economy seating
- Heavy-duty and higher-capacity chairs
- Industrial, utility and draughtsman seating
