Growing up working in his fathers greenhouse in canada, frank hofland wanted to contain the beautiful blooms his father grew and started traveling the world as a teenager in search of design-focused containers for his fathers business.

With a dream to provide products that would ignite a passion for beauty and design within the floral industry. Grounded in this belief that customers deserve the best new products, the hofland family continues to scour the globe each season to build a new collection on the leading edge of todays trends. This commitment has built a company that holds the industry standard for providing beautiful ceramics and glassware for the event and floral industries, on-trend home decor accents, and exceptional customer service.

BIDKhome is a wholesaler of European design trends for the home, garden, gift, and hospitality industries.  Their products are sourced in over 25 countries and designed in house or by their European partners. 

They aim to present more than commodities; their products have design pedigree, responsible production methods, and artisanal heritage.

The companies that began as Barreveld International and DK Living in 1990 has since consolidated as BIDKhome.

It started with a Dutch étagère in 1990. René Barreveld knew he had stumbled upon something special for American buyers and began importing the intricate scroll-work shelves. From there, a company blossomed, joined later on by a contemporary offshoot, DK Home. Today, BIDKhome continues to hand-select unique, ever-changing designs from Europe, while also ushering in renewed energy and fresh perspectives. In 2015, the sister companies Barreveld International and DK Home merged to form BIDKhome, but continues in its same mission to provide both traditional and contemporary European products for the home, garden, gift and hospitality industries. They continue our partnerships with European companies while developing new ones. In their own sourcing from 25 countries, they have bolstered their bread-and-butter collections and renewed their focus on finding products with special attributes such as exclusivity, design pedigree, and production story.

Established in 1947, Mepra was an endeavor of 3 Italian brothers, Francesco, Bortolo and Giovanbattista, whose entrepreneurial roots started with Prandelli back in 1901. Today, the company speaks of 3 generations of Italy's rich tradition, lifestyle and design - encompassing a stellar presence all across the world. Mepra has been acknowledged with multiple awards for its classy uniqueness and premium quality, including The Designpreis der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, The Design Plus Award and The Golden Compass Award. Apart from their world class cutlery, Mepra also manufactures coffee pots, trays, etc. and their products were featured on famous Discovery TV show "How it's made?" for their mesmerizing craftsmanship.

The uniqueness of high end Mepra cutleries lies in the cutting edge PVD coating process which is different from the usual electroplating procedure. PVD or Physical Vapor Deposition, refers to the physical process of producing vapor of a material that is further deposited on the item to be coated via vacuum. It doesn't go for acid solution deployed in electroplating.

PVD procedure assures massive depositions of titanium nitride & other forms of metal nitrides on the cutlery that in turn guarantees a solid hardening effect.

Sempli is an award winning product design company located in Los Angeles, California whose designs take you for a spin. Sempli’s design philosophy is deeply rooted in the founder Daniele ‘Danne’ Semeraro’s dual heritage by combining the best of two countries - Sweden’s simple functionality with Italy’s style and elegance.

Sempli. Swedish functionality - Italian design

While living in Florence, Italy, Semeraro discovered the essential role the wine glass played in the drinking experience. He then conceived the idea for the stemless Cupa-glass series, spawning the growing collection of Sempli products.

Staying true to the craft, the glasses are hand produced by the most skilled glass blowers. The swirling rotation of the glass is both entertaining and practical. First introduced in the market in 2002, the Cupa series is known as the original swirling glass- “the spinning original since 2002”.

The Sempli glass series is produced from the purest lead-free crystal, making it a 100% safe and sustainable experience. Since the Cupa series, Sempli has expanded to include the Monti-collection, Sempli’s first flat-bottomed glasses!
