Mattress Specialists debuts 3rd unit

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, March 24, 2002

PORTLAND, Ore. — Simmons-only bedding retailer The Mattress Specialists has opened its third metro Portland store, a 4,500-square-foot unit near Clackamas Town Center.

Mattress Specialists was launched six years ago by Tracy Director and Alan Director after the sale of the 87-year-old Director's Furniture Co., founded by Alan's grandfather and Tracy's great-grandfather.

The first store was in Beaverton's Canyon Place Shopping Center, and the second opened two and a half years later in Tualatin's Haggen's Shopping Center.

The retailer was named to the Business Journal's list of Oregon's Fastest Growing 100 in 2001.
