Our Rich History
Kellet Upholstery & Sunroof Centre has a storied history of growth and success. Here’s a glimpse into our journey:
1979: Humble Beginnings
In 1979, Kelvin Joseph founded Kellet Upholstery & Sunroof Centre on Henry Street, starting with just three staff members. It was a modest beginning, but with a vision for excellence and a commitment to quality, the business began to flourish.
1980: Expanding Horizons
Due to increasing demand, we moved to a larger premises on Hill Street in 1980. This expansion allowed us to better serve our growing customer base and accommodate more projects.
1996: Establishing Our Permanent Home
In 1996, we purchased our current premises and constructed a new, bigger double-storey building. Perfectly situated in a prime location for our industry, this facility has been our home ever since, enabling us to expand our operations and enhance our service offerings.
