With a reputation built on over one hundred years of exceptional service, MG West takes great pride in bringing the most experienced professionals to your project team. Based in San Francisco, with offices in Silicon Valley and London, MG West manages interior projects ranging from 5k SF to over 500k SF annually.

MG West was established by Monroe George West in 1905. Starting as a manufacturer and distributor of bank teller stations and safes in the San Francisco Bay Area, MG West Company was in high demand after the 1906 Earthquake. The 7.9 magnitude earthquake leveled the city, leaving many Clients in need of access to their safes and vaults.

Following the Great Depression, Monroe George shifted from banks to offices, and MG West entered the office furniture industry. The rest is history.
