Sheely's Furniture and Appliance named a top U.S. furniture store for second time

Sheely's Furniture and Appliance has been recognized as a top furniture store in the United States for a second time.   

According to a news release, the retailer based in North Lima and Aurora has been named to Furniture Today's Top 100 U.S. Furniture stores, previously named to the list in 2023.

Founded back in 1952 in North Lima by the late Dale Sheely Sr., Sheely's is the only retailer on the list with just two locations. Other companies on the list had hundreds of stores.

Sheely's owner Jessica Smith says it's humbling to know its showrooms have become such shopping destinations that they rank nationally in sales. 

"This honor is a reflection of my grandfather's founding vision, our dedicated employees and vendors - and especially the loyalty of our customers," Smith said.
