Ivan Allen Moves Agusta Operations to Atlanta

Ivan Allen has been in Agusta, Georgia since 1954, but come the end of the month the furniture store will have moved all of it’s facilities to Atlanta. Once selling only office furniture, the business had moved into interior and architectural design assistance in 2003.

The move is attributed to a better ability to serve all of their clients from the Atlanta headquarters. Advances in technology and improvements in the current distribution process, have done away with the need for having both the Atlanta and Agusta facility.

The closing of the Agusta facility has been the trend for Ivan Allen as it has already closed down stores in Chattanooga, Tennessee and Albany, Georgia to sell and ship their products from the home office. With less money in consumer pockets and a slow housing market, furniture companies across America are finding it harder to stay in business!
