About Us

Inspired and encouraged by her long time clients, Jenny Vance opened Vance Hospitality Group in 2017 where she could focus on creating beautiful custom furniture for the hospitality industry. Vance Hospitality is headquartered in San Diego and operates out of two factories in Tijuana, Mexico.

Vance Hospitality Group is a woman owned business and currently in the process of receiving certification from WBC and the SBA.

Jenny

With over 25 years of furniture manufacturing experience, president of VHG, Jenny Vance brings her love of design and bench made craftsmanship to each and every project. Jenny lives in San Diego with her daughter Charlotte, their two Pugs, one Rottweiler and two Tortoises. When not creating beautiful custom furniture she enjoys a good DIY project in her studio and pretending to work on her watercolor pet portraits.

Robert

Long time quality control manager, Robert overseas the day-to-day factory needs in Tijuana. His incredible resourcefulness and can-do attitude make him an integral part of the Vance team. When Robert isn’t training for his next marathon he is rooting for his favorite team, The Dodgers.

Lauren

As the Director of Projects, Lauren is the direct liaison between design, purchasing and the manufacturing process. Lauren’s attention to detail keeps projects on time and the factory on task.  Lauren, her amazing husband Ian and Chief Cuteness Officer Samuel, live in the fun and funky North Park neighborhood of San Diego. An avid and accomplished baker she has been known to whip up a batch of cookies on short notice improving not only morale but project ship dates.

Charlotte

Full time student, cheerleader and owner of Ruby and Me Dog Beds, Charlotte helps curate and craft all things social media. Years spent at tradeshows and on factory floors alongside her mom have honed her style and eye for quality. When Charlotte isn’t keeping the Vance team in check, she enjoys choreographing dance routines with her pug Roxy to anything Taylor Swift.

Support Champions

Full time staff companions Roxy, Gloria, Sadie Vance, Turner and Johnny Cash are the glue holding VHG together. Some clients know them in their official capacity as COM stewards, finish sample coordinators, and quality control managers but their work behind the scenes often goes unrecognized. The work they do each day napping, snacking and vocalizing their important voices during Teams calls reminds the Vance team to stay focused and work hard ensuring they continue to live their best lives in beautiful San Diego.
