About The Company
In 1967, the first Slumberland store opened in Minnesota. Making people comfortable, with our products and our prices, has been our first priority, right from the beginning. Unlike most furniture stores, we started as a mattress and La-Z-Boy specialty shop. Over time, we've expanded our merchandise categories as well as our store count. Today we have 127 stores in 12 states, selling furniture for the rooms that make up the heart of your home. Slumberland is now one of America's top sellers of La-Z-Boy upholstery. Along with our ongoing commitment to value and comfort, we're also determined to satisfy your sense of style. We take pride in providing a focused selection of mattresses and home furnishings that understand the way you really live. Good-looking furniture that's easy to love, easy to maintain and, best of all, easy on your wallet.
About the Role
Since day one, back in 1967, Slumberland Furniture has valued love, dignity, and respect. Being a family-owned company, we are proud to offer a kind, friendly, and supportive atmosphere where we share a common goal. Our goal is to provide an exceptional customer experience and quality furniture for a great price.
