National Business Furniture Opens Warehouses to Provide Same-Day Shipping on Office
Furniture

Strategic locations across the U.S. allow NBF to provide business customers with
faster delivery on hundreds of office furniture items.
MILWAUKEE, WI, September 15, 2008 – National Business Furniture
(NBF) has opened three warehouses across the country to provide its customers with
same-day shipping on hundreds of items. NBF, which until this year relied solely
on furniture suppliers to drop-ship their goods directly to customers, began stocking
products in their own warehouses to provide customers with better service and quicker
delivery.
Items that are stocked in the NBF warehouses will ship the
same day a customer places the order, meaning most customers will receive their
products within two to three business days. NBF added special "Ships Today!" icons
throughout their catalog and website to identify items that are available for immediate
shipment. In addition, NBF's website, NBF.com, has a
"Ships Today" category so customers can quickly browse furniture that's
available for same-day shipping.
"Our 'Ships Today!' program is a natural extension of our
customer-focused vision," NBF President Kent Anderson said. "We move quickly to
react to our customers' needs, and getting furniture faster is a common theme we’ve
heard. Our decision to invest in these warehouses reflects our continuous commitment
to providing our customers with the best level of service we possibly can."
The ability to offer same-day shipping on many items has
proven to be very popular with customers. NBF plans on doubling its offering of
stocked products for 2009. In addition to the chairs and school furniture already
in stock, NBF will begin adding desks, files and conference tables over the next
few months.
"Many of our customers, whether they are business, government
or school buyers, work within strictly defined schedules," NBF Vice President of
Merchandising Randy Farah said. "We understand that in addition to expert service
and a great selection, how fast the furniture actually gets to the customer is an
important deciding factor. By stocking our most popular items, our customers will
be better equipped to meet their deadlines."
