After 78 years in business, Dallas-based Weir’s Furniture is closing the doors to its stores permanently.
Founded in 1948, Weir’s operates four stores in North Texas, but the board of directors have decided that "long-term financial position, difficult market conditions and operational challenges” led them to the decision to cease operation.
Al Boulden, Weir’s Chairman of the Board, released a statement per FOX 4 that read:
"This was an extremely difficult decision, but closing now enables us to honor J. Ray and Bea’s legacy by finishing well and taking care of our employees.
"From the very beginning, Weir’s mission has been rooted in honoring God and serving our people. We are incredibly grateful to our customers, employees, and the broader community who have supported us for so many decades and made Weir’s a beloved retailer throughout North Texas.
"We’ve built generational relationships with both customers and employees," Weir family member, current board member and former CEO Mark Moore added. "While your patronage has sustained us, it has been your friendships, encouragement, and faith in our team that truly defined us. We are proud of what we created and thankful for every person who has walked through our doors."
A closing sale began yesterday, March 26, at the four Weir’s locations in North Texas: Southlake, Dallas, Plano, and Farmers Branch.
