About PMD:

Based in Columbus, Ohio, PMD Furniture Direct™ was founded by President and CEO Jeffrey S. Hosking. Mr. Hosking's mission was to improve the overall customer experience including price, customer service and product selection.

It is from this foundation that PMD Furniture Direct launched a distinct business model for retail bedding and home furnishings that has now yielded many locations nationwide.

PMD Furniture Direct™ has developed a unique business model for retailing furniture and bedding at competitive retail prices to the public, utilizing extensive merchandising, marketing, sales and logistics expertise.

Why PMD:

During the current economic times, consumers are seeking value - quality furniture and bedding at lower prices. Today, PMD Furniture Direct™ is a strong brand in US home furnishings industry and carries a strong dedication to core principles such as honesty, integrity, commitment, loyalty, belief, hard work, personal responsibility and family values.

You do not need prior furniture experience to be a successful PMD Furniture Direct franchise owner. Through an extremely innovative and highly proprietary system, PMD teaches you how to drive qualified buyers directly to your location.

The Advantages:

• Locations – Image Is Everything!
  While we are a retailer, our locations can be found in warehouses and commercial districts rather than high-rent retail outlets like our competition. While this keeps costs down, it also helps create a "wholesale" atmosphere that today's cost-conscious consumers are looking for.


• Advertising – Keep It Simple!
  PMD Furniture Direct™ advertising is simple, efficient and cost effective, producing exceptional results. PMD does not believe that millions of dollars in advertising budgets are necessarily required to generate millions of dollars in furniture sales.


• Sales – Low Overhead, High Profit!
  PMD Furniture Direct™ is an appointment-only business. Customers are pre-qualified before they are invited to an appointment. This means as a PMD Furniture Direct franchisee you have the freedom to truly set your own schedule like no other franchise opportunity you will come across.


• Products – Deliver Value to the Customer!
  Royal Heritage Home Furnishings™, the PMD Furniture Direct™ private label furniture line, includes products such as mattresses and specialty bedding, bedroom furniture, formal and casual dining furniture and living room furniture.
