Company Description:

Jordan's Furniture Company is the country's all-time, undisputed, retail-furniture Success Story. The statistics, citations and awards speak for themselves - Retailer of the Year awards from many industry and trade groups; appearances on Best Places to Work lists; the Tri-State Home Furnishings Association's "Guerrilla Marketer of the Year" award.

Jordan's is truly the American epitome of a family business. The feeling of family is spread throughout our organization by a remarkable group of dedicated employees who call themselves: The J-Team." This success story began in 1928 when Barry and Eliot's grandfather opened his store in Waltham, and "Jordan's Furniture" was born. With the help of Barry and Eliot's father, the store began to prosper and grow.

In 1963, Eliot became actively involved in the company, with Barry following a few years later. The winning combination of the two brothers working together pushed sales volume well beyond predictions, turning a local furniture store into a major retailer, with customers from all over New England.

Realizing the dreams of their father and grandfather, the doors to our second store in Nashua, NH were opened on February 12, 1984. The success of Nashua quickly sent Barry and Eliot looking for a larger central warehouse facility and a third location. Our Avon flagship superstore and warehouse opened January 31, 1987. Avon became a huge success from day one. Furniture shopping became a fun experience - thanks to our fabulous Motion Odyssey Movie (MOM) ride and we continued our commitment to making Raving Fans of our customers and employees! The next expansion came in 1998 with the opening of the Natick store, offering our guests a trip to the streets of New Orleans - Mardi Gras Jordan's Style.

In November of 1999, Berkshire Hathaway Inc. purchased Jordan's Furniture. Barry and Eliot remain integral parts of virtually every aspect of Jordan's Furniture. "We are very excited about this venture. Berkshire Hathaway and Jordan's are a perfect fit. Our growth potential is huge with the support of Berkshire Hathaway," said Barry.

In August 2004, Jordan's 750,000 sq. ft. Warehouse and Distribution Center opened in Taunton. In October 2004, the public was treated to more surprises when we opened our largest store in Reading, MA. This store features a full showroom, 3-D IMAX movie theater, and "Beantown" - all the great sights of Boston re-created entirely in jelly beans!

As the business continues to expand, the original goals of the company have never changed: maintaining a superlative reputation for customer service and satisfaction, quality merchandise, personal attention to detail, integrity, honesty, dependability, community goodwill, and a genuine concern for every employee. Our "J-Team" is really a family of employees with a unified common goal: to keep Jordan's Furniture Company number one. If you're ready to make a career move, why go anywhere else when you could be here? As our success story continues, why not write yourself into the next chapter?!
