JYSK Royal

By Appointment to The Royal Danish Court

When Her Majesty Queen Margrethe II of Denmark on her 70th birthday, on April 16th 2010, appointed JYSK as Official Supplier of the Royal Danish Court, it became one of the greatest days in JYSK’s history.

'By Appointment to The Royal Danish Court’ is a title given to companies, who have done business with the the Royal Danish Court for several years, who are well-established, financially stable, and have a good reputation. The Royal Danish Court has through the years been a regular JYSK costumer, and the title allows JYSK to use the crown in relation to its company name.

Over the years, JYSK owner Lars Larsen and JYSK have received numerous official visits from the Danish Royal Family.
