About Haverty Furniture Companies, In
About Haverty Furniture Companies, In
Haverty Furniture Companies operates 129 stores across 17 Southern and Midwest states, encompassing roughly 4.5 million retail square feet as of December 31, 2025. Approximately 33.5% of 2025 written sales involved in-home design consultations, and online sales made up about 3.2% of total business. The Atlanta-based retailer, founded in 1885, does not franchise any of its locations.
Havertys earns revenue through in-store and online furniture and accessory sales driven by a commissioned sales team, with design consultations lifting average tickets to roughly double the base ticket size. About one-third of sales are financed through third-party finance companies, which carry no credit or collection recourse back to Havertys. On the supply side, the largest ten vendors accounted for approximately 42.9% of 2025 product purchases, and 63% of total furniture purchases by cost were for goods not produced domestically, mostly wood "case goods" imported from Asia alongside domestically sourced upholstery. The company operates three distribution centers and four home delivery centers that shuttle merchandise up to 250 miles for next-day delivery, a network management describes as a competitive advantage. Havertys competes against fragmented local, regional, and national furniture retailers as well as e-commerce entrants, without operating any franchised locations.
Show full overview
Havertys' risk disclosures lean heavily on the tariff overhang tied to its import-dependent supply chain: after the U.S. Supreme Court invalidated tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the administration announced replacement tariffs under different authority, leaving pricing for the 63% of furniture purchases sourced abroad in flux. Management warns that if vendor cost increases can't be passed through, LIFO-based gross margins could compress, or the company could be forced to seek alternative suppliers of comparable quality. Compounding that exposure, the business remains sensitive to discretionary consumer spending: management cites disposable income, housing-market conditions, and consumer confidence as swing factors that could reduce demand for big-ticket furniture purchases in a slowing economy.
