The company started as a home, jewelry and furniture retailer founded in 1922 by Max and Clara Fortunoff. After being sold to private equity companies in 2005 and 2009, the company was re-purchased by the Fortunoff and Mayrock families, who have relaunched the outdoor furniture and jewelry categories.
Fortunoff Backyard Stores, under a license to Furniture Concepts, now operates 33 Fortunoff Backyard Stores in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Delaware, and Pennsylvania. Combined with its parent company in Texas, Chair King, it is believed to be the largest independent outdoor furniture dealer in the country.[1]
