    FAMILY businesses with multiple members running the company successfully in Singapore are increasingly rare, but furniture retailer Scanteak seems to be bucking the trend.

    One of Singapore's most recognisable brands since 1974, the group is on an upward growth trajectory, expanding aggressively into its newest market, Japan, as well as diversifying from its core strength of teak furniture into businesses such as mattresses and leather furniture.
