Happy Anniversary - THE One
‘We started with a few but now we are many. Not only in numbers but also in talents and creativity. Let us keep on inspiring others and make the journey glamorous. Congratulations on all your efforts and accomplishments!’
Chairman of THE One - Mr. Rashed A Mazroui
The Day won’t ever forget when the foundation of THE One set out, in 1995, Thomas Lundgren, Founder and Chief Emotional Officer of THE One, had an unnerving encounter with Mr. Rashed Al Mazroui a business tycoon of AL Mazroui Group. One has a brilliant idea while the other has all provisions to carry out the idea to its extreme.
Creative minds came together to support each other to convert an idea of funky furniture brand into reality which today adorn the walls of THE One Dubai Head Office reception.
Together, they gathered a group of early believers and proceeded to eat, sleep and breathe THE One 24/7 for the next seven months. Finally, in the summer of 1996, the very first THE One Theatre opened in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and the rest is history.
Twenty-five years on, THE One is also more determined than ever in its mission of saving the world from large corporate conglomerates and bad taste. They believe the world does not need another retailer but needs a better world: that THE One has a much more meaningful role to play than merely selling furniture, accessories, and home décor.
Advancing on their mission of inspiring customers with seasonal collections true to their promise of Always Human, Magical Experiences, and Service with Heart, THE One takes on the responsibility to improve the world that we live in by engaging family, friends, fans, and communities. With a strong workplace that fosters caring, ‘Do Good’ behavior is a catalyst in establishing the practices that are so unique to THE One. To this end, they only deal with suppliers who agree to the same Environmental and Ethical Values, run local volunteering programs, employ physically and mentally challenged individuals, as well as their own THE Onederworld – a Sustainable Village Community Program with education at its heart.
Let’s take a stance together with the funkiest home fashion brand on the planet, THE One.
Let’s Change the World Together!
