Friends Combine

62 Bentinck Street is where Friends Combine is located. It’s an old building in a busy part of the city. We’ve been here for many years, and the place has a lot of history. The walls are thick, and the windows are large, though they can be hard to open sometimes. We chose the name because we really are just a group of friends who decided to start a business together. There isn't a big boss or a lot of management layers. We just decide things together over tea. The office is usually a bit of a mess with papers and samples everywhere. We try to tidy up on Fridays, but by Monday afternoon, it’s back to how it was. That’s just how we work. Bentinck Street is always noisy with horns and people shouting, but we’ve grown to like the energy of it. No one here uses a fancy reception desk or a glossy brochure. We just tell people to come to 62 Bentinck Street if they want to talk to us. We wear comfortable clothes and don't worry too much about appearances. Focusing on the tasks at hand is our main thing. It’s a very grounded way to run a business. Competing with big firms isn't our aim. We just want to do our work and enjoy each other’s company. It’s a simple setup that works for us.
