Georgia Furniture Mart is permanently shutting down its business after furnishing homes across the Atlanta metropolitan area for 40 years, with its final liquidation sales set to launch this Thursday.
The local retailer will open its total liquidation sales to the public this Thursday at its stores in Norcross and Kennesaw. Owners Michael Hall and Tim Padden made the decision to close due to an evolving retail landscape and the sale of the company’s real estate properties. During the liquidation, the stores will offer massive price cuts on complete living room, dining room, and bedroom sets.
Michael Hall founded the business in 1986 under the name Underpriced Furniture before rebranding to Georgia Furniture Mart in 2020. That same year, Hall and Padden opened a distribution center in Tucker to enable next-day delivery services. The flagship showroom in Norcross spans 92,000 square feet with an attached 20,000-square-foot outlet store. The independent retailer later expanded in 2024 by opening its second showroom in Kennesaw.
“Over the last 40 years, the business has supported local veterans organizations, youth programs, and St. Jude,” said Hall. “We are deeply thankful to everyone who has been part of this journey and entrusted us with their homes. While this chapter is coming to a close, the memories and relationships we’ve built will always remain.”
Officials have not yet confirmed the exact date when the showrooms will close for the final time. It is also unclear how many employees will be affected by the permanent closures. Shoppers can visit the final liquidation sales starting Thursday at the following locations: Norcross and Kennesaw.
