The origins of the Bisley Company go back to 1931. It was in that year that Freddy Brown, a tradesman sheet metal worker, started his one man business repairing damaged cars in a garage in St Johns, Woking, Surrey. In 1941 the company moved to its present site in Bisley, Surrey when a 400 square metre manufacturing facility was built and various wartime defence contracts were undertaken. It was responsible for designing and manufacturing the first containers to be dropped by parachute, which were widely used by airborne forces throughout the war. The company received several commendations from the Ministry of Defence for the work undertaken on behalf of the war effort.

Today Bisley has two manufacturing facilities, in Bisley and Newport, which occupy 64,000 square metres. In addition, it has a showroom in Great Portland Street, London together with sales offices in France, Holland and Germany.

The company is the largest manufacturer of office furniture in the U.K. and one of the largest in the European Union. It is generally regarded as having the most modern, state of the art factories in Europe and presently employs over 1,000 persons. The capital investment by the company over the past fifteen years is approaching £70 millions.
