Cornish Tent Company moves to Newham and launches South West Sail

Tuesday 3rd September, 2024

The Cornish Tent Company, a tent for hire company, has joined the Newham Industrial Estate.

Analisa and husband Will took over the Cornish Tent Company in May 2023 after years spent working in the hospitality industry. With Analisa’s background in event planning, and Will’s expertise in logistics and operations, the duo and their team create unforgettable events.

The business provides tipi and sailcloth marquees for hire as well as their furnishings, servicing the whole South West. The team cover everything from small garden parties to festivals, corporate events and weddings. They even erected tents for last years’ Winter Wonderland event in Bristol Cribbs Causeway.

The duo is now expanding their business by launching South West Sail, offering sailing boat sail cleaning services to commercial boats during winter.

Their new home in Newham was a perfect fit for this new business venture. “We needed the new premises to have good drainage, office space and be big enough for us to hang the sails and tipis to clean,” said Analisa. “The space we have moved into is perfect.”

The duo is also enjoying the location, “it’s central so it’s convenient for clients to drop in and our staff can easily travel by train or bus. The feeling of community here is also a huge plus for us,” said Will.
