Hello! Who are you and what business did you start?

My name is John Humphreys and I started Texas Rover Company which has recently been rebranded as Humphreys. Humphreys is a lifestyle industrial design brand, which creates classically inspired leather, wood, and metal products. Another arm of the brand is Humphreys Build, which focuses on architecture and design projects.

Our flagship product is the Humphrey Chair, a twist on a fold-up camping chair made with full-grain Argentine leather. This was my first design and the product the brand was built around.

Initially, the company grew rather quickly, we sold 50 chairs at $16,000 within the first year. We gained a large following, opened new doors, and brought in new customers very early. All of which was accomplished at a high price point.

Company sales grew and the brand has been realized. Now, in addition to these products. the company is focusing on design, build and custom furniture.
