About UsTo boldly go where no furniture store has gone before…All of the furniture at The Furniture Loft sells at 20% - 30% less than the large conventional furniture stores. While we certainly retain significant buying power from our wholesale partners, our showrooms are not the largest you have seen, nor is our building of exorbitant value. It is that modest, rural overhead that allows us to pass further savings onto you. Every time you visit us, you’ll be sure to find another outstanding value. PhilosophyThe Furniture Loft & Appliance Center provides quality merchandise at prices that the large stores with massive overhead and commissioned based employees can’t afford. - Combine this with the personal service of a family owned business and you"ll experience a truly satisfying purchase. Yet, the greatest benefit of shopping at the Furniture Loft begins after the sale. "In our rural area we can not afford to have folks buy from us just once. Our customer service goes far beyond "making the sale" we continue to work with our customers building professional relationships that last - so that we can grow together with our friends, neighbors, families, and community." -Chris LaFlamme Jr., Co-Owner On average, 20 percent or more of the businesses profits are given to community services, not-for-profit organizations, and other businesses of like mind. Chris LaFlamme Jr. holds a B.A. in both Elementary Education and Music; and his partner Ervin Star Jr. retains a Doctorate in Business Management and is a professor at Roberts Wesleyan College. HistoryFor twenty years LaFlammes AES, LTD., operated by Chris’s father Chris LaFlamme Sr., sold "almost everything" "...in purchasing the location we quickly decided to make "everything" go away and concentrate on what we do best… quality products, at great prices - with truly personal service."                    -Ervin Star, Co-OwnerIn December of 2002 Ervin Star Jr. and Chris LaFlamme Jr., both natives of Eagle Bridge NY, and their wives Carrie and Angela set out to open a local, family run furniture business. Their goal to restore and build a business that demonstrates excellence and integrity while providing resources to support the ideals and principles they believe in has been achieved. On June 1st of 2006, Ervin and Chris brought on two new partners and aquired a second store in Granville, NY. While the new store carries the same lines of furniture, flooring, bedding and appliances, it has been expanded to include a full line of electronics as well as a large tool dept. |
