About Vaughan Furniture
In 1923, two brothers, raised
on a small farm in southwest Virginia, founded Vaughan Furniture Company.
Taylor G. Vaughan, Sr. and his brother Bunyan C. Vaughan and members of
their families and friends set out to begin a furniture manufacturing
business that would survive the Great Depression to become the established
Vaughan family legacy that endures today. The company was organized,
financed and built to manufacture a line of dining room furniture to
complement another company's line of bedroom furniture.
During the 1930's, Vaughan was selling complete bedroom suites for as little
as $24.95. In 1954, the lowest priced bedroom suite sold for $69.95. The
suite included a double dresser, chest-of-drawers, tilting Venetian plate
glass mirror, bookcase headboard and panel footboard. Two higher priced
suites were competitively priced for $79.95 and $89.95.
During the mid-1950's, when Taylor's son George was elected president,
improvements were made in manufacturing and efficiency. By 1964, Vaughan
orders had doubled and so had the manufacturing space. In the years that
followed, through 1997, the company continued to grow and acquire
manufacturing plants at a rate that may never be seen again.
John Vaughan was the company's fourth president. For John, style, quality,
integrity and a strong partnership with dealers were the guiding principles
of doing business. Now, the third generation of family management continues
the traditions of the founders. Bill Vaughan was elected the company's fifth
president in 1995. Taylor Vaughan was elected the company's sixth president
in 2007 and David Vaughan is Senior Executive Vice President.
Through rapid growth and expansion, the Vaughan family of skilled
craftspeople have always been at the heart of the company. Vaughan Furniture
Company remains committed to its fellow employees, its customers and to
delivering a quality product at value pricing. In the spirit of enlivened
volunteerism, Vaughan and its employees support America's Promise, a
national non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of
children and youth.
Vaughan employs a sales force of approximately 75 and maintains a
distribution to more than 5,000 dealers, internationally. An approximate
26,000 square foot showroom in the International Home Furnishings Center in
High Point, North Carolina, serves as the primary display location for
product, shown twice each year, at the Spring and Fall Furniture Markets. As
a complete resource for bedroom, dining room and living room furniture,
Vaughan looks to the future with revitalized optimism.
