EURWAY, a chain of contemporary, European-style furniture, has been named one of Austin’s fastest-growing companies, according to the Austin Business Journal. As a result of the company’s significant retail store growth combined with the doubling of its online sales, EURWAY plans to build a new corporate office and fulfillment center later this year.
EURWAY was recognized as one of Austin’s fastest-growing companies based on its 2000-2002 growth rate of 36.41 percent and a compounded annual growth rate of 16.79 percent.
In addition, EURWAY has a successful online sales business, with 1,400+ products featured on www.eurway.com and more than 50 orders a day fulfilled from the Internet site. Online sales are expected to more than double in 2003, says founder Greg Greeson.
“Our fast growth, fueled also by strong Internet sales from www.eurway.com, is due to our relentless commitment to customer service, product selection, and a great sales staff,” says Greeson.
Consumers Rank EURWAY #1: For the third year in a row, Austin-area residents voted EURWAY Austin as the best home furnishings store in Austin. In its “Best of Austin ’03,” the Austin Chronicle reported, “EURWAY’s sleek, modern take on design has made Austin homes tasteful for the better part of two decades.”
This year marks the first time that EURWAY Dallas has been recognized by consumers as the best furniture store in Dallas. Dallas Observer readers named EURWAY “Best Furniture Store – Readers Choice Award” in Dallas.
Earlier this year, EURWAY was also named by leading houseware maker UMBRA as its Retail Partner of the Year. “EURWAY is a world-class retailer, with fabulous merchandising and dynamic displays, ensuring their stores are always fresh and exciting for their customers,” UMBRA stated when announcing its prestigious award.
“These awards prove that great design, quality products and affordable prices are what customers want when they purchase furniture and home accessories,” says Joni Greeson, head of merchandising.
EURWAY is a $22 million family-owned, home and office furniture retailer headquartered in Austin, Texas, with stores here and in Dallas and Houston. Its large showroom/warehouse model (each store is approximately 30,000 square feet) allows customers to select their furniture and take it home with them at the time of purchase.
