About Lexington
Home Brands Furniture
Lexington Home Brands is a leading global marketer and
manufacturer of branded home furnishings. The company is separated
by its design leadership, a wide-ranging product assortment,
quality craftsmanship, exceptional value and broad style
appeal.
Lexington Home
Brandsreflects the
concept of lifestyle that is explained by partnership with the top
national brands such as Tommy Bahama Home, Trump Home, Liz
Claiborne Home, Nautica, Palmer Home, and Bob Timberlake. These
partnerships along with the well-respected Lexington brand on
itself allow the company to introduce personality to each
collection of home furnishings, and to help you create the
lifestyle in your home that captures your own personality.
Founded in 1901 by the name of Dixie Furniture Company and
continuing its business till this day, the brand was meant to
become the leadership in the furniture industry. In 1940, inspired
by Henry Ford's automobile assembly plant in Detroit, the company
revolutionized the furniture industry with the introduction of
automatic conveyors and mass production techniques to move
furniture from one stage of assembly to the next. During the 1950s
and '60s, four companies were established, with individual
specialties and concerns. Each company introduced its own
innovations to the entire world. In 1987, the Michigan-based Masco
Corporation bought and merged the four Lexington companies into
Lexington Furniture Industries. Lexington joined a prestigious
group of Masco-owned home furnishings companies. Finally, in 1996,
Lexington underwent a leveraged buyout, creating the independent
LifeStyle Furnishings International. Then, in April 2002, a
Lexington Home Brands management group joined with equity partner
to purchase the full-line furniture company from LifeStyle
Furnishings, returning it once again to an independently-owned
company. During its existence, Lexington Home Brands has grown from
a small manufacturing operation a century ago to a leading global
marketer and manufacturer of branded case goods and upholstery,
with the industry's largest brand portfolio.
With its representative design decisions, Lexington Home
Brands is committed to offering you fresh new designs, attention to
detail and time-honored craftsmanship, the essential elements for
living with effortless style. Lexington allows you to create a
lifestyle in your home that matches your aspirations.
