Leading integrated components manufacturer Hickory Springs said that as a result of nationwide growth of its consumer retail products division, Hickory At Home, it will open four new national service centers to better position its products and increase efficiency.
Tapping facilities owned by the company, it will add service centers in Americus, Ga., New Albany, Miss., Pinetops, N.C. and Commerce, Calif. opening this fall. Several additional locations will be opening coast to coast next year.
“We are very excited to be growing our Hickory At Home division. With our product lines continuing to expand, we saw the need to open additional service centers to better position us geographically and serve our customers’ needs,” said Hickory Springs Executive Vice President Dwayne Welch. “Following this initial expansion, we will be announcing several more service centers strategically located across the country in the coming months.”
The service centers provide regional warehousing, distribution and servicing of all Hickory At Home products, including its latest adjustable bed offering, icare Adjustables FLX. The company will debut the new adjustable bed program, along with an expanded line of convertible furniture, Panama Jack Convertibles, at the upcoming High Point Furniture Market on October 22-27.

Classic lines are designed by Hickory At Home and produced specifically for the company, giving them complete control of the manufacturing process and quality of the finished product.
Products are constructed using the finest quality materials and assembled under rigorous specifications in locations throughout the world. Hickory Springs maintains distribution points nationwide where the products are warehoused and sold through hundreds of furniture stores, sleep shops, catalog companies and furniture chains located throughout the nation.
