Furniture For Life And Panasonic Announce United States Distributor Partnership

Furniture World News Desk on 5/28/2017


Furniture For Life and Panasonic Corporation of North America recently announced the signing of a business partnership appointing Furniture For Life (“FFL”) as the exclusive United States distributor of Panasonic massage chairs.

For more than ten years, FFL has been at the center of the rapidly expanding, high-end, high-performance massage chair market in the U.S. Its products are sold through a nationwide network of authorized brick and mortar dealers, e-commerce outlets, and its direct-to-consumer channels.

“Today a great brand leader joins with a passionate distribution partner to energize the U.S. massage chair market. Our shared goal is to deliver health benefits and improved quality of life to the American consumer,” said Ian Hays, Vice-President of Sales at FFL.

Hays adds, “All the products we choose to market deliver profound health and comfort benefits. As the name Furniture For Life implies, the products we represent are good for you and are built to endure. For what we do and for what we believe in as a business, Panasonic massage chairs are a perfect match.”

Panasonic has a long tradition of engineering and manufacturing. Having been in the massage chair business since 1969, Panasonic is one of the world’s early entrants into massage chair design and manufacturing. It owns a significant share of the Japanese massage chair market, and the Panasonic Real Pro massage mechanism is recognized as one of the most advanced and capable in the industry.

Panasonic massage chairs have been a leader in the worldwide market with technological innovations and state-of-the-art massage chair design and functionality. Panasonic massage chairs are synonymous with quality, durability, and style.

“We’re driven to replicate the feeling of real expert hands as closely as possible, and we believe our massage chairs are closer to perfection than any others in the marketplace. Our new partners at FFL can enthusiastically carry forward our passion and success in the marketplace,” notes Bill Soderberg, Group Manager of Panasonic Consumer Electronics Company.
