Original Store - 1952

Clinton Appliance & Furniture Co. was started in 1952 by J.A. Williams and the late Lyman Melton Horne Sr.

The business started on College Street as Clinton Appliance & Tire Co. selling tires, appliances and electronics. In the early 1960's, the name was changed to Clinton Appliance & Furniture Co, Inc. A new store was opened on Northeast Blvd. Furniture was added to the mix of products and tires were dropped. In 1985 the business was purchased by the two sons of the original owners. Al Williams and Dwight Horne became the officers and owners of Clinton Appliance & Furniture Co. Also in 1985, the College St. location was closed and all operations were moved to the new expanded N.E. Blvd. location. In 1990, a new warehouse was built at 1420 Hobbton Hwy. In 1998, a new service department addition was added to the warehouse location.

Over the years the product mix has changed. Clinton Appliance & Furniture Co. now sells a complete line of furniture, bedding, electronics including satellite dishes, appliances, floor covering including carpet, vinyl, laminate floor, and hardwood, outdoor power equipment and computers. But, the basic philosophy of company has not changed in it's history. That philosophy is to give name brand products at competitive prices and to give outstanding customer service. Clinton Appliance & Furniture has a 'Low Price Guarantee" in every department and is on the cutting edge of technology with a website, HDTV, digital satellite systems, computers and the most up to date styles in home furnishings today.
