Ashley Furniture To Open Arizona-Based Manufacturing Start-Up

Ashley Furniture Industries (Ashley), a large manufacturer of furniture, is expanding its furniture manufacturing operations to Tolleson, Arizona, a city in the greater Phoenix area. The 225,000 sq. ft. leased site at 8711 West Jefferson Street will create more than 200 new manufacturing jobs.

The company has already started hiring and is hosting an onsite recruiting event on Wednesday, Dec. 8, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., welcoming walk-ins to apply for first shift, manufacturing positions.

New Location Expands Ashley’s National Network

This new location expands Ashley’s already established national network of 13 production facilities servicing the U.S. The company’s multi-million-dollar investment will be put toward updating the facility along with machinery and equipment costs. The Tolleson location is set to begin manufacturing upholstery furniture later this month.

“The high demand for furniture has led us to increase our manufacturing, distribution and retail operations. We couldn’t be more thrilled to expand operations into the state of Arizona. Local leadership has been very welcoming, and we look forward to working together on this landmark project,” said Todd Wanek, President and CEO, Ashley Furniture Industries.
