Tariff-Free Custom Upholstered Furniture: Made in the USA

 

Manufacturing and commerce are changing fast these days. As an interior designer, you have to plan months in advance for each of your design projects. The last thing you want to happen is another price increase to explain to your client. In this global economy, we find beautiful furniture and design products from countries near and far. As each country is now dealing with their new respective tariff rate, there is one country you can be sure will avoid the higher tariffs and volatile price increases, the United States of America. Corn Upholstery Co. proudly manufactures all of our custom upholstered furniture right here at our facility in Tucker, GA, USA.

 
 
 

Nearly three quarters of furniture sold in the US comes from abroad. That is a large amount to sift through to know what a good option would be when avoiding the changing tariff landscape. Your only hope to be sure you are avoiding tariffs is to buy products built in America. That’s a huge benefit of going with Corn Upholstery. Our custom upholstered furniture begins and ends in our workshop. Being made and shipped directly from our American factory exempts us from having to pay any foreign tariffs, meaning no price increases for the consumer.

We construct our own frames in house made of kiln-dried hardwoods and 3/4-inch plywood that is glued, stapled, and screwed to ensure long lasting strength and longevity. Our frames then travel a mere few hundred feet to our upholstery workshop where our skilled artisans cut, sew, and upholster the frames into beautiful pieces of furniture. They then flow to our Assembly department across the building where the pieces are assembled, inspected, and packaged to be sent out to your client’s dream interior.

The overarching message of this article is that Corn Upholstery’s custom booths, banquettes, and upholstered furniture are all manufactured in the United States. There are many benefits to building and purchasing products made in the USA. As a purchaser, you are supporting jobs and the surrounding economy closer to home. As a manufacturer, we are not as influenced by the changing international markets and trade landscape. Lastly, your client wins by knowing they are getting the highest quality, custom upholstered furniture that they can trust will look beautiful and last for many years to come.
