Nebraska Furniture Mart, Inc. · Omaha, NE United States
Company Description
Girl power, indeed. The legendary single-location Nebraska Furniture Mart got its start in 1937 when Russian immigrant Rose Blumkin ("Mrs. B") began selling furniture at a slight markup out of a shop basement. Her motto: Sell cheap and tell the truth!" The famed Omaha location (called the Mart) was built in 1968 and then rebuilt by Mrs. B and her son when a tornado hit, causing severe damage in 1975. Two decades later an electronics and appliance store was added in Omaha; the 77-acre location now boasts some 500,000 sq. ft. of selling space. Omaha investor Warren Buffett (owner of
