HOM opens Gabberts stores in Sioux City, Sioux Falls
Clint Engel -- Furniture Today, March 14, 2011
SIOUX CITY, Iowa — HOM Furniture has opened its two new Gabberts Design Studio and Fine Furnishings stores here and in Sioux Falls, S.D., expanding the high-end Edina, Minn.-based business it acquired in 2008.
The 18,000-square-foot showroom in Sioux Falls is part of a larger complex that also features a new 62,000-square-foot midpriced HOM store. In Sioux City, the Coon Rapids, Minn.-based Top 100 company added a 16,000-square-foot Gabberts to an existing 60,000-square-foot HOM.
HOM President and CEO Rod Johansen said the stores have been well received since the March 4 opening in Sioux Falls and the March 11 opening in Sioux City.
"A lot of customers are very aware of the Gabberts brand and are excited to have us there," he said. "We have set quite a few appointments for home visits already in both markets."
Plans for all three stores were reported by Furniture/Today in January. In addition, a recent story in the Sioux City Journal covered the opening there.
