In recent decades, American manufacturing has fallen behind, as inexpensive products can be shipped across the world rapidly. Factory jobs in America are not as plentiful as they once were, and mass produced lower-quality items line shelves. Over fifty years ago, the brothers who founded England Furniture decided they would not sacrifice quality and ship jobs overseas. That legacy is still a driving force behind England Furniture. Here are a few benefits of buying American-made furniture.
American Job Creation
As demand for American-made furniture remains strong, companies can continue expanding and hiring skilled craftsmen and women, as well as corporate staff. Participating in a movement to invest in a piece of furniture made in America is a statement that helps American companies keep their operations in the States. Recently, England Furniture announced that 200 jobs would be added to their company in the coming year as a result of strong growth.
Low Carbon Emissions
All of England Furniture’s pieces are created in Tennessee, and don’t have to cross an ocean to get to you. This means that there is less fuel needed to transport furniture from the warehouse to your house. With less exhaust smoke is in the atmosphere, air quality improves for everyone around the globe.
Fast Turnaround
England Furniture innovated their operations to be able to deliver customizable pieces of furniture in three weeks or less. This fast delivery does not come at the cost of quality, which is incredibly important when purchasing a piece that will be in your home for years to come. Additionally, being made in America, furniture orders don’t run the risk of being held up at customs, which can cause furniture to arrive weeks later than intended.
