Arkansas-based retailer FFO Home, which operates 47 stores in seven states, said it has acquired Louisville, Ky.-based Service Furniture and Bedding, which operates 28 stores under the Furniture Liquidators and Mattresses and More banners.
The acquisition is FFO Home’s first since private equity firm Sun Capital Partners purchased an undisclosed stake in the company in 2016.
"We are incredibly excited to welcome Furniture Liquidators and Mattress and More to the FFO Home family," said Larry Zigerelli, president and CEO of FFO Home. "Both of these brands have enjoyed strong leadership positions for many years. Furniture Liquidators provides us strong critical mass in one of our key expansion markets, and fits us strategically as a leading value-oriented retailer. Mattress and More provides an important platform to accelerate the growth of our vertically integrated bedding business."
The company produces mattresses under the Comfort Coil and Natural Elements brands.
FFO Home’s other retail stores are in Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Tennessee, Mississippi and Kansas. The newest stores include 15 Furniture Liquidators locations and 13 Mattresses and More stores.
