West Bros builds bedroom, dining, workspace and occasional pieces to order at 582 14th Street in Hanover, Ontario — the Adler, Camber, Corsa, Curva, Fulton, Jensen, Phase and Serra collections of beds, dressers, night stands, dining tables and desks — cut from white oak, walnut, maple and cherry, with every drawer box in the plant built from solid maple using English dovetail construction.

West Bros' beds, dressers and night stands are wooden furniture of a kind used in the bedroom, HTS 9403.50.90, and its dining tables and occasional pieces are other wooden furniture, HTS 9403.60.80 — both on the CBP Section 338 list, both carrying a 50% additional duty on entry to the United States since August 22, 2026. That falls across half the company's dealer base: "We serve over 200 authorized furniture retailers across Canada and the United States, supply leading North American furniture brands through OEM manufacturing partnerships, and provide custom furniture solutions for commercial, hospitality, and institutional clients worldwide." On August 26, 2026 the Owen Sound Sun-Times named West Bros among the largest wood furniture manufacturers in Grey-Bruce and reported that the company did not return its calls; the Wood Manufacturing Cluster of Ontario, which counts West Bros a member, told the paper that members exporting exclusively to the U.S. "are down by 40 per cent and restructuring." The company is still hiring in Hanover and has published nothing about the duty. · content.govdelivery.com, Aug 22, 2026
