Manoirs Nashville

What Manoirs Nashville does

Manoirs Nashville, LLC is a privately-held, founder-owned "to the trade" interior design showroom established in 2005 in Nashville, Tennessee. The company is led by owner Cherie Smith and operates from a single location at 2969 Armory Drive, Suite 500, within the Nashville Design District. Its core function is serving as a curated resource center and wholesale sourcing point exclusively for licensed interior designers, architects, builders, and other trade professionals. Account establishment requires a business license and Sales & Use Tax Certificate, restricting access to verified trade buyers.

The company's product portfolio spans fabric, furniture, wallcoverings, lighting, rugs, accessories, drapery hardware, and bedding, sourced from over 100 vendor partners including flagship brands Fabricut, Kravet, Thibaut, Cowtan & Tout, Century Furniture, Bernhardt, and Scalamandre. Manoirs Nashville maintains an organized showroom with hanging fabric samples sorted by vendor and color, fabric books, catalogs, finish chips, and inventory on the floor for immediate purchase. An adjacent warehouse handles custom orders, including inspection, damage claims, and freight claims, with shipping available to clients across Tennessee and nationally. The company hosts Designer Luncheons several times per year in conjunction with vendor representatives for product education and networking.

The business model is wholesale product sales at trade pricing with no retail markup. Revenue mechanics are project-driven, with designers sourcing materials on a per-project basis. The company employs 1-10 people, has no disclosed external funding or institutional ownership, and operates without any proprietary technology platform, relying instead on a Squarespace website, Instagram-based marketing, and in-person showroom relationships. No AI, API, or software products are part of the offering.
