In its own words

Bassett is a leading retailer, manufacturer and marketer of branded home furnishings. We were founded in 1902 and incorporated under the laws of Virginia in 1930. Our rich 123-year history has instilled the principles of quality, value, and integrity in everything we do, while simultaneously providing us with the expertise to respond to ever-changing consumer tastes and meet the demands of a global economy.

Approximately 60% of our wholesale sales arise from our network of 86 Company-owned and licensee-owned Bassett Home Furnishings (“BHF”) stores. Our store program is designed to provide a single source home furnishings retail store with a unique combination of stylish, quality furniture and accessories with a high level of customer service. The stores highlight our custom furniture design and manufacturing capabilities, free in-home or virtual design visits (“home makeovers”) and coordinated decorating accessories. Our philosophy is based on building strong long-term relationships with each customer. Salespeople are referred to as “Design Consultants” and are trained to evaluate customer needs and provide comprehensive solutions for their home decor. Until a rigorous training and design certification program is completed, Design Consultants are not authorized to perform in-home or virtual design services for our customers.
