Ensuring Comfortable Sleep With Made in Guyana Certified Mattresses & Other Products
Kaieteur News – On average, we use our mattresses for between six and nine hours per night and it is important that they provide the comfort needed and function as expected. It is well known that getting enough sleep benefits overall health and the quality of our mattresses can greatly impact this. In 2022, Comfort Sleep, a company committed to ensuring persons, in and out of Guyana, get a good night’s rest, received permission from the Guyana National Bureau of Standards (GNBS) to use the Made in Guyana Standards Mark on its mattresses and related products. Comfort Sleep was established in August 2003 by Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Managing Director, Mr. Dennis Charran, a man who lets service and quality promote his business.

However, with determination, drive and much needed assistance, the business was back on the market within six months, much stronger and far more equipped than before. According to Mr. Charran, since then, Comfort Sleep products are widely distributed in the local market and the company is looking to supply its desirable range of mattresses to more countries in CARICOM. Taking time to describe his mattresses, Comfort Sleep CEO stated, “we give you the best night’s sleep. We say, if you are not getting good sleep, that means you are not sleeping on a Comfort Sleep Mattress.” In December 2022, Comfort Sleep received a Permit to use the Made in Guyana Standard Mark on its mattresses, foam sheets and pillows; the Comfort Dreamer – Back […]
