Chair Design, as the company was called back then, quickly gained popularity with local retailers and interior designers.  Soon after, the company began making sofas and sectionals to complement their popular priced chairs.  By the late 1980’s the company changed its name to Lazar Industries and opened a second factory in North Carolina to accommodate a growing east coast customer base.  The country began the 1990’s in recession but Lazar pressed forward as its charismatic leader vowed to “design its way out of slow times!”  This mantra helped the company to firmly establish itself as an industry leader in contemporary and transitional upholstery.

Today, Lazar still produces all of its products in Siler City, North Carolina utilizing the skills of the talented men and women in our community and is proud to be Made in the USA.  Though no longer a family run business, the company holds true to the principles established by its enigmatic founder, great design, good value and fast delivery.
