Century Furniture
American
Founded in 1947 by Harley Ferguson Shuford, Sr., initially as a local upholstery agent, Century quickly expanded with the establishment of its casegoods plant in Hickory, North Carolina. The company's first major success came with the creation of an 18th-century style mahogany dining suite, setting the stage for decades of innovation and craftsmanship.
Century Furniture is celebrated globally for its extensive range of wood and upholstered pieces, encompassing bedroom, dining, and occasional collections in traditional, transitional, and contemporary styles. Renowned for its meticulous finishing and fine craftsmanship, Century collaborates with esteemed designers like Thomas O’Brien, Charlotte Moss, and Candice Olson, among others, through licensed collections that redefine luxury and style in home furnishings.
With state-of-the-art facilities including a sophisticated casegoods operation and three upholstery factories all located in Hickory, North Carolina, Century Furniture remains committed to superior quality and innovation. The company's Upholstery Division, established in 1957, exemplifies its commitment to customization and craftsmanship, offering over 2,500 fabric choices and nearly 300 frame styles for bespoke furniture solutions.
Throughout its history, Century Furniture has navigated growth and adaptation under visionary leadership. The introduction of the Citation Collection by designer Raymond K. Sobota in 1952 solidified Century’s reputation as a style leader, while strategic expansions such as the Century Chair Division in 1964 and subsequent acquisitions have bolstered its manufacturing capabilities and market reach.
In a pivotal move towards sustainability and innovation, Century Furniture implemented a responsible purchasing policy led by VP of Global Logistics, Roger Jones, ensuring that its wood materials are sourced from sustainably managed forests. This commitment to environmental stewardship earned Century Furniture recognition as a Sustainable by Design registered company and a Rainforest Alliance member.
In 2013, Century Furniture transitioned ownership to RHF Investments, Inc., led by the Shuford family’s third generation, marking a new chapter of family stewardship and industry leadership. Under the guidance of Alex Shuford, III, as CEO, Century continues to expand its influence with strategic acquisitions and investments in product design, customer service, and technology.
Today, Century Furniture stands as a pinnacle of excellence in the high-end furniture market, recognized for its enduring commitment to craftsmanship, sustainability, and customer satisfaction. As part of the Rock House Farm family of brands, Century Furniture remains poised for growth, dedicated to meeting the evolving needs of its discerning clientele while upholding a tradition of quality and innovation that spans generations.
