The company began doing business in November
of 1983 out of a single retail store located in South Charleston,
West Virginia. From this single location start, expansion followed
in several major phases so that currently the company consists of
thirty stores throughout West Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio.
Early in its history, Mattress Warehouse operated from headquarters
located on the ground floor of its Kanawha City showroom in Charleston,
West Virginia. In 1987, Mattress Warehouse purchased a three-acre
site in Winfield, WV and moved its headquarters. In the fall of 1987,
Mattress Warehouse had a 10,000 sq. ft warehouse constructed on the
back section of this property. As additional stores were opened, distribution
and delivery centers were also operated out of store locations in
Beckley and Ashland as well as out of a warehouse in Bridgeport, WV.
At the present time, Mattress Warehouse is operating delivery and
distribution centers in Winfield, Beckley and Bridgeport. Since 1993,
the stores have been operating on sophisticated Point of Sale (POS)
basis using software from GERS, the number one software vendor for
the 100 top retailers in the country. |

From its inception, Mattress Warehouse
has prided itself on offering its customers a broad selection of bedding
featuring outstanding values at all price levels accompanied with
second-to-none customer service. The bedding selection encompasses
most of the major national brands as well as some strong regional
brands. In addition to mattress sets, Mattress Warehouse stores carry
a broad line of "sleep related" items such as brass, wood
and iron beds, daybeds, futons, electric adjustable beds, pillows,
mattress pads, and other accessory items which serve to complement
the major product line.
Its suppliers have recognized Mattress Warehouse on numerous occasions
with awards citing outstanding performance. With both its suppliers
and its customers, Mattress Warehouse has positioned itself as the
leading bedding retailer in the region. Mattress Warehouse owes much
of its success to a loyal, dedicated highly trained and very professional
group of employees who take justifiable pride in being the very best
at what they do. |
