Company History
Our company would not be complete without our engagement and involvement in the greater community. Ken Whalen was passionate about giving back to those who’d supported Whalen Furniture’s growth, and we continue to carry that vision and dedication today. In 2018, Whalen was divested from Li & Fung and thereafter rebranded and became part of the Living Style Group.
Throughout the years, Whalen Furniture has stayed close to its origin. When Whalen was acquired, Li & Fung’s motto was “we’re one family,” which resonated with the culture at Whalen Furniture. Furniture is in our DNA, and the focus on quality and craftsmanship influences everything we make. Today, the company continues to create market-leading design and manufacturing across a variety of product categories. Whalen Furniture products blend innovation, quality, and style at reasonable prices.
