Everything about Ethan Allen Furniture Company totally explained

Ethan Allen Interiors, Inc. is a North American furniture chain with more than 300 stores across the United States and Canada. It was founded in 1932 by Nathan S. Ancell and Theodore Baumritter.

History

The company was started as a housewares manufacturer in 1932, then bought a bankrupt furniture factory in Beecher Falls, Vermont in 1936.
   The firm adopted the name "Ethan Allen" for its early-American furniture introduced in 1939. It was named after the Vermont Revolutionary leader. The firm was sold in 1980 to Invesco for $150 million, though Ancell remained an advisor. The company was sold again in 1989 to a management group.
   Today, Ethan Allen has 310 stores, 21 manufacturing plants, and sales of over $1 billion located across the United States. It is one of the largest furniture companies in the United States. In 2008, the company announced plans to close a dozen stores.
   A wholly-owned subsidiary bought a plant in Silao, Guanajuato, Mexico in 2007. ==Manufacturing plants ==
