Smarter Sourcing, Delivered Seamlessly
Mart® brings the future of furniture procurement to the Middle East
In an industry where deadlines are tight, expectations are high, and every detail matters, furniture procurement has long been a point of friction. Endless emails, scattered catalogues, and out-of-stock surprises. These are familiar pain points for architects, interior designers, project managers, and procurement leads across the region. But Mart® is proving it doesn’t have to be this way.
Unveiled to the public at INDEX Dubai 2025, Mart® is a digital-first sourcing platform purpose-built for the contract furniture world. Developed by the team behind regional fit-out leader KPS, and backed by over thirty years of industry experience, Mart® is transforming how professionals across the Middle East plan, source, and deliver furniture for commercial projects.
The platform, in practice
At INDEX Dubai this year, the Mart® experience wasn’t just a concept, it was hands-on. Interactive digital terminals placed across the venue gave visitors direct access to the platform, which brings together tens of thousands of quality-controlled products from the world’s leading furniture brands. It’s a single, intuitive space where users can browse by brand or budget, generate instant BOQs, compare specifications, and collaborate with stakeholders, all in a few clicks.
Designed specifically for the needs of commercial projects, whether offices, hotels, clinics, schools, or residential towers, Mart® cuts through the noise and accelerates decision-making. There’s no need to juggle furniture catalogues, spreadsheets, emails, and phone calls. The entire journey, from planning to white-glove installation, is streamlined through one connected free-to-use experience.
More than a marketplace
What sets Mart® apart is its blend of digital precision and human insight. Behind the platform is a dedicated team of furniture experts who work alongside clients to guide specification, logistics, and aftercare. Built-in AI tools can even scan your GA drawings or furniture brief and recommend products based on use, style, and technical need, turning hours of research into minutes of clarity.
As part of the INDEX showcase, Mart® also furnished the 4SPACE-designed Bang & Olufsen Speaker’s Lounge and the main auditorium stage, giving visitors a tangible glimpse of its curated, sector-specific product collections in action.
Sustainability and scale
Mart® isn’t just about speed and simplicity. Sustainability is a key priority. Through a partnership with UK-based NGO Waste to Wonder, the platform enables clients to repurpose used office furniture for schools across Africa. Many product lines on the platform feature FSC® wood, recycled content, and low-emission materials, with smart shipping and packaging systems that reduce waste at every step.
From one floor to fifty, Mart® is built to scale. Its deep partner network means faster lead times, reliable supply chains, and fewer unwelcome surprises, backed by a platform that’s always up to date and easy to use.
Design meets delivery
At its core, Mart® represents a new way of working: one that respects the creative design process while delivering commercial outcomes with confidence and clarity. With a flagship showroom in Dubai Design District and a platform accessible 24/7, Mart® is giving professionals in the region a smarter way to source.
In the words of Head of Mart®, Sebastian Stefan: “Our platform was built to make sourcing commercial furniture as seamless as designing projects, and INDEX was the perfect place to share that experience with the region’s design leaders.” As the design world continues to evolve, Mart® is proving that procurement doesn’t have to play catch-up. It can lead.
