    [SINGAPORE] Amid tariff uncertainty, home-grown furniture retailer Castlery is entering its next phase of growth in the US by opening a showroom in New York – after six years of being online-only.

    Co-founder Declan Ee described the brick-and-mortar flagship outlet – also its first in the US – as a “natural progression” from its digital retail model.

    He said: “The goal was always to create a best-in-class experience for our customers … and the final piece of this experience is completed when we have an offline store.”
