Access to Experts

Becker Furniture World was founded in 1978 by the Huseby family. It all started with a 500 square foot building used to distribute wholesale furniture and manufacture select products. As an experiment, the store was opened to the public and sales became so successful, the business began to focus exclusively on selling retail in 1986. Success led to one building expansion after another until its current quarter-million square feet. In June of 2006, the idea of the “Home Center” was conceived, where the very best-in-class home improvement retailers would unite under one roof. The Grand Opening of the Becker Home Center will allow the public to experience this remarkable home shopping concept first-hand.
