Bob's Discount Furniture, Manchester, Conn., opened a new location last week in Nesconset, N.Y., bringing the total to 36 stores located throughout New England, New Jersey and New York.
This latest opening comes after Bob's expanded its retail presence in 2009 with openings in Yonkers, Poughkeepsie, and Carle Place, N.Y.; and Woburn, Mass. The retailer has plans to open 4 additional stores during 2010.
The Nesconset location brings 46 jobs to the local community, raising the total new jobs brought to the New York area up to 262 since the 2009 Yonkers, Poughkeepsie and Carle Place store openings.
"It is with much anticipated excitement that we kick off the 2010 year with our 36th new store in Nesconset," said Bob Kaufman, president, Bob's Discount Furniture. "The entire Bobs team looks forward to offering a new community our commitment to quality furniture at everyday low prices plus our commitment to helping the people in it through Bob's Outreach Program."
As part of entrance into the Nesconset community, Bob's Discount Furniture will make a $5,000 donation through its Bob's Outreach program to enhance senior citizen programs throughout the community.
