Deirdre McGettrick, CEO of ufurnish.com's story
As a child, I always dreamed of interiors and could often be found cutting up the Argos catalogue and as an adult, I quickly fell in love with Pinterest and Instagram.
Finally, the day arrived when I picked up the keys to my first home. I was filled with interior ideas and excitement, but soon became frustrated with the difficulty of making those ideas a reality. Hours and hours spent with endless tabs open on my laptop, trying to find those perfect items, looking for advice and practical tips… surely there was a better way.
I discovered my new home on Rightmove, I bought my car on Autotrader… why wasn't there one website where I could see all of the furniture and furnishings retailers in one place. Surely this would help everyone create their dream home and save time and money – meaning we could all buy more easily and with greater confidence.
Fast forward 5 years and I am now the proud founder of
