About Room & Board

Room & Board was founded in 1980 by John Gabbert in Minneapolis, Minnesota, as a subsidiary of his parents’ furniture store company. The company, still headquartered in Minneapolis, now has 22 retail locations across the United States and employs more than 900 people, selling furniture, home goods, and decor, from bedroom sets to rugs and lighting.

“We combine our timeless modern look with quality craftsmanship for furniture that has an enduring place in our customers’ homes, helping combat the nearly 10,000 tons of furniture that goes to landfills annually."

Emily McGarvey, Director of Sustainability, Room & Board
