BECK OFFICE FURNITURE ACQUIRES TWO COMPANIES IN MARYLAND AS PART OF THEIR NATIONAL ACQUISITION AND EXPANSION PLAN
Founded in Long Island in 1957, Beck Continues to Expand Space Planning Services
and Additional Private Label Brand Showrooms through Acquisitions
NEW YORK, NY - Feb. 3, 2003 /Send2Press Newswire/ -- Beck Office Furniture, Inc.
(www.beckofficefurniture.com) today announced the acquisition of American Space
Planners of Owings Mill, MD, and Advanced Office Furniture, of Laurel, MD. These
locations add substantially to Beck's existing large, fully stocked, New York
showrooms in Huntington Station, Mineola, Rockville Centre, Ronkonkoma, and
Manhattan, NY.
The former owner of American Space Planners, Wendy Lyons will stay on as manager
of the renamed Beck American Space Planners. The former owner of Advanced Office
furniture will stay on as manager of the renamed Beck Office Furniture of
Maryland.
"These acquisitions give us additional facilities in key customer markets," says
company President and CEO, Kenneth Beck, "and are the next step in our national
showroom expansion. With the challenged economy, we've been able to make several
acquisitions over the past six months, first locally in New York, and now in
Maryland."
Concludes Beck, "With our e-commerce web site we already service companies
around the country. What separates us from the unsuccessful dot-com companies
in the furniture industry is our showrooms. The Internet has helped us identify
customer markets in which we should have a brick-and-mortar presence, and we are
acquiring or opening showrooms in those key markets."
