Dr. Adefunke Soyibo: 19 Years On, Betting Big on Affordable Furniture at HNK Interiors
Dr. Adefunke Soyibo, founder and CEO of HNK Interiors and HNK Designs Centre, recently inaugurated a new manufactory and unveiled the HNK Design Centre in Lekki, Lagos. The event, attended by Senior Pastor of Trinity House, Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, marked a significant milestone in Nigerian design, manufacturing, and affordability.
After 19 years of operation and five years in the manufacturing sector, HNK is prioritizing local production, reduced delivery times, and more affordable furniture for Nigerians. The Design Centre showcases various products like kitchen cabinets, wall panels, and "HNK Casa," a staged setting for gatherings. HNK aims to promote Made-in-Nigeria, offering faster turnarounds and affordable furniture.
The centre is designed to generate income through quarterly transformations, rentals, and event hosting. Manufacturing challenges such as power issues, logistics, and staffing have been addressed by sourcing skilled artisans from the Benin Republic. Dr. Soyibo and Pastor Ighodalo emphasized the importance of starting small and growing big, with the Design Centre serving as a hub for creativity, excellence, and national growth.
