Century Furniture, a leader in high-end, custom home furnishings, has announced the celebration of its 75th anniversary this year.
Founded in 1947, by Harley F. Shuford, Sr. Century Furniture has strived to be the best furniture company in the world, providing finely crafted luxury furniture with impeccable design and quality and legendary service to its customers. Now in its third generation of family ownership, Century, with its over eight hundred associates, celebrates their 75th Anniversary with special events planned throughout the year to focus on what has made the company successful, its people.
“We are excited to celebrate this milestone with our associates both past and present,” said Alex Shuford, III, president of Century and CEO of Rock House Farm Family of Brands. “It is increasingly rare to see successful family businesses and we attribute every year of success to the many hands and hearts that have graced our company through the years. Their dedication and passion have carried us to this moment, and we are excited to build on this foundation and look forward to continued growth and innovation in the years ahead.”
Century has been celebrating throughout the year with monthly cash drawings for associates, special gatherings and a photography campaign that centers around imagery of associates captured throughout the year. A curated exhibition of these images will be displayed at each of their locations as well as during the October International Furniture Market in High Point, N.C.
