Marijn Souren
I grew up in a small place in the South of the Netherlands, called Nuth. During my younger years I always loved sports, swimming and playing football. My parents had their own store directly next to our house, a part of our house was also a showroom. Back then it was mainly antique furniture. My parents had to search for it during evenings and weekends and I often joined them in their search.
My grandfather had also a background with woodworking and if something was damaged or has to be restored he helped. Things changed and the demand for antique furniture went to custom oak furniture. Due to our experience with woodworking and solid wooden furniture pieces this was no problem. I was about 17 years old and had to decide what to do in the future. I preferred sports, even though I always liked to help in our store with carying and sanding etc etc. So decided to do the bachelor of Sports Marketing in Tilburg. I finished this bachelor degree and wanted to see the world. So went backpacking to Australie, New-Zealand and some parts of Southeast Asia. This was my first time in Asia and I fell in love with the people, nature and craftmanship. At 22 years old I had to decide, look for a job or start for real at Souren Furniture. As you can see I have chosen for Souren Furniture.
Not sow long after I joined my parents in their store I met Madelon. Now over a decade further we have two beautiful daughthers and Souren Furniture has become from a local business an online webshop and bigger store which has opened end of 2019 with customers from all over Europe and even further. I'm thankful it's a succesfull family business with support from everyone. My parents now on paper with retirement but still there every day, my brother who arranges the online business from abroad and my wife is there to help customers and order handling.
Souren Furniture started in 1980 and exist 40 years in 2020. We hope that our next generation can continue after us and will make their (grand)parents proud. We're not planning any retirement soon, we just started. ;)

Frankfurt is one of the largest cities in Germany. With just under 700,000 inhabitants, the city holds fifth place just behind Cologne.

Frankfurt’s most famous sights press against each other in the historic city centre. For a long time, the imperial cathedral served as the coronation place of the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire’s German Nation. The town hall, which has been in place since the 14th-century, is located in Römerberg. The construction of the Paulskirche began in 1789. Several years were to pass before its completion in 1833.
