Akula Living has been awarded the prestigious and nationally coveted King\u2019s Award for Enterprise: International Trade 2023. This award is bestowed by His Majesty\u2019s Government in recognition of the highest standards of excellence \u2013 and personally approved by His Majesty King Charles III.

Demonstrating remarkable overseas sales and outstanding growth, the Yorkshire based and family owned company builds on an extraordinary 100-year history, originating from a legacy of textile manufacturing. Drawing on three generations of expertise in this craft, founder and CEO Tim Appleton launched what is today a lauded outdoor furniture manufacturing business for the global hospitality and cruise industry, producing marine-grade collections, designed to perform and built to last in the harshest climates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


A market pioneer, Akula Living\u2019s ranges are manufactured and fabricated to function flawlessly outdoors, year-round. But though ultra-durable, they do not compromise on style. This combination of form and function has seen Akula Living become an international brand of choice for the world\u2019s leading hospitality and cruise groups, including Four Seasons, Accor, Marriott, IHG, Hilton, Holland America and Royal Caribbean. Its products are also created with sustainability in mind, using contemporary technologies and innovative processes to reduce waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
