“Handmade wooden furniture, sustainably made in Sussex”
Our story begins with Johnny Pastos who moved to Brighton, UK, in 2013. Although he comes from a family of furniture makers, JP's interest lay elsewhere so he ventured into the world of music after graduating his music degree. Alongside his music career, JP also started his own catering business, baking and supplying pastries to local coffee shops. However, life took an unexpected turn when the pandemic struck in 2020, bringing JP's catering and music businesses to a halt. It was during this challenging time that JP decided to learn the basics of woodwork and furniture making.
With newfound skills and a desire to keep his entrepreneurial spirit alive, JP launched his Etsy shop, JPDoesStuff, where he showcased his first handmade furniture designs. With millions of people around the world in lockdown and working from home, orders instantly poured in, not just for desks and tables, but also for music studio furniture, garden tables, shelves, and an array of custom designs.
As demand skyrocketed, JP enlisted the help of his friends, fellow musicians who had also been affected by the pandemic. Together, they formed a team of dedicated individuals, all eager to learn the art of furniture making. Our team has now grown and in the summer of 2021, to better reflect our collective efforts and vision, the company was rebranded as Pastos Co.
