Ethan Allen Tampa Selects Purnell Furniture Services


TAMPA, FL: Purnell Furniture Services Inc. announced today that it has started providing ‘white glove’ home delivery services for all of the Ethan Allen stores in the Tampa Bay area.

 

Historically, deliveries for all of the Tampa Bay area Ethan Allen design centers were done in-house. “It is a good business decision for us,” said Jeffrey Bloom, President of the Ethan Allen Design Centers of Tampa Bay. “As our business has grown in recent years, so have the demands of providing professional white glove home delivery service. We liked the fact that Purnell could take over this aspect of our business, retain our delivery teams, and focus on customer satisfaction in the area of home delivery. We selected them because of their 30 year reputation in the business as white glove delivery specialists.”

 

Richard Purnell, president of Purnell Furniture Services, Inc., said, “We are honored to be selected by Ethan Allen of Tampa as their home delivery service, and look forward to serving the customers from their three Tampa Bay area stores. We are excited to be working with Jeffrey Bloom, Steven Haubenstock, and their professional team at Ethan Allen.

 

The Ethan Allen Tampa Bay Design Centers have a long history in Florida. Brothers Alfred and Howard Haubenstock founded the company back in the mid 1960’s as Carriage House, opening the first family store in Tampa. They were early adopters of the “gallery” concept of freestanding stores pioneered by Ethan Allen in the mid to late 60’s. They opened their first location in 1968, followed by Brandon in 1981, and then Citrus Park in 2001.

 

Purnell Furniture Services Inc. has been specializing in the ‘white glove’ home delivery of furniture for 30 years. Founded in 1979 by brothers Richard and Elmer Purnell, and sister Linda Lee Malone, the company is headquartered in Manassas, VA. Purnell now serves a 20 state region of the US from Texas to Maine providing asset-based warehousing, furniture deluxing, warranty service, and home delivery to some of America’s leading interior designers and furniture retailers. Richard Purnell is president of the company and can be reached at 1-800-787-6355, x 103. For more information go to: www.purnellusa.com.

Ethan Allen of Tampa Bay has three design centers in the Tampa Bay area. They are located at 6200 N. Dale Mabry Highway, 8314 Citrus Park Drive, (both in Tampa) and 10015 Adamo Drive, Highway 60, in Brandon, Florida. Jeffrey Bloom is President
