The terms will officially begin at the General Membership Meeting that will be held in conjunction with the national buying group’s annual symposium in Arlington, TX, May 13-15.

The three will be assuming the positions of three term-limited board members:  Chris Cooley of Michael Alan Home Furnishings in Lake Havasu City, AZ, Lisa Hawkins of Room to Room Furniture in Tupelo, MS, and Matt Meusey of Wagner’s Home Furnishings in Missoula, MT.

John Lott said of his election to the board, “I am thankful for the opportunity and looking forward to serving on the Board of Directors for Furniture First.  There are talented leaders within Furniture First and I feel honored to serve with fellow board members.”

“Our newest board members really reflect the diverse models of our membership,” said Andrew Kauffman, CEO of Furniture First. “We have members with high-volume single store operations, retailers with multi-unit chains over large territories, and multi-generation store owners focused on their communities. When they work together for the good of all, they have a greater impact for each approach.”
