Carls Furniture Grand Opening

November 12, 2002

Coconut Creek Is the Retailer’s Largest Store And New Corporate Headquarters

Carls is getting a brand new “house” to furnish. The grand opening of the chain’s largest facility is set for November 8. The new 400,000-square-foot facility will house furniture and patio showrooms, a state-of-the-art warehouse complex and the company’s new corporate headquarters offices.

To celebrate the opening of its largest showroom, Carls will be offering its patrons a chance to win $50,000 on selected furniture pieces throughout all of its locations. Register-to-win stations will be displayed within selected galleries at each showroom location.

The new showroom, with more than 175 fully accessorized room vignettes, is located at 6812 State Road 7 at Hillsboro Boulevard in Coconut Creek.

The showroom features a stunning entrance, with a 50-foot high peaked atrium, which towers over the 35-foot ceilings. A grand staircase with a mid-level showcase platform greets visitors the moment their feet touch the Italian marble floors.

The retailer specializes in mid- to high-end home furnishings, accessories, floor coverings and window treatments, representing nationwide designers and manufacturers.

Founded by Carl Ross in 1943, Carls has enjoyed remarkable growth since being purchased by its current ownership in 1974. At that time, the company had only three locations with $2.5 million in total annual sales. Today, Carls has steadily grown to $114 million in annual sales with 520 employees.

In addition to the new Coconut Creek facility, Carls Furniture currently has showrooms in Stuart, North Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Pompano, Fort Lauderdale, Lauderhill, Aventura and Kendall.

The new Coconut Creek Carls will be open seven days a week, Monday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday, from noon to 6 p.m. The new showroom’s phone number is (954) 949-0900.
