History
The Alston family have been involved in the furniture trade since 1850. This started with brothers William and Ambrose Alston who were both furniture makers. They branched into furniture manufacturing which the family has continued to do until today.
In 1951 Leslie Alston decided to open Alstons Upholstery in Colchester, Essex which has relocated three times within the town to end in its current site in Gosbecks Road. The family has recently purchased an adjoining site to aid further expansion.
Today the fifth generation of Alston brothers, John and David run Alstons Upholstery. David Alston as Managing Director and John Alston as Chairman.
They are joined by the sixth generation, Holly and Jessica, the first Alston sisters.
