Trade Program & Interior Designers

Partnering with Design Professionals

At Metro Retro Furniture, our most valued relationships are with the design community. For over 25 years, we have served as a trusted sourcing partner for leading interior designers, architectural firms, boutique hospitality groups, and film set decorators worldwide.

Our Trade Program is specifically designed to streamline the procurement of authentic, museum-grade mid-century modern furniture for your residential and commercial projects. By partnering with us, you gain access to an expertly curated, authenticated inventory of iconic 20th-century design, housed entirely within our 30,000 sq ft Pasadena facility.

Exclusive Trade Benefits

Tiered Trade Pricing Approved members of the design trade receive exclusive, tiered discounts across our entire catalog of vintage and antique furniture, lighting, and décor.

Tax-Exempt Purchasing For designers purchasing for resale, we seamlessly facilitate tax-exempt transactions. Simply provide your valid resale certificate during the application process to ensure all future orders are processed correctly.

Priority Global Logistics & Custom Crating We understand that your project timelines are strict. Because we maintain our own in-house crating facility and partner with specialized white-glove freight carriers, Trade members receive priority scheduling for custom wood-crating, logistics management, and global export handling. We take the stress out of safely transporting investment-grade design to your job site.

Dedicated Sourcing Looking for something specific? If you need a matching set of 12 Hans Wegner Wishbone chairs or a specific Florence Knoll marble credenza that isn't currently listed on our site, our acquisition team can source it through our extensive private network of global collectors and estates.
