We look forward to providing our current customers and new furniture shoppers with a more satisfying experience. They will find the beautiful items they want for their homes, with friendly, knowledgeable decorating assistance and affordable prices." The new showroom will celebrate a ribbon cutting ceremony Friday at 9:45 a.m. The showroom features fully accessorized room setting and hundreds of decorating ideas. During the grand opening sale, shoppers may take advantage of special sale prices at all metro Atlanta Havertys. Plus, they may qualify for 12 months no interest financing. They may also register to win part of $15,000 in furniture that will be given away. "I am very happy to bring Havertys' century-old tradition of quality furniture and great customer service to our existing and new customers in the Fayetteville area," said Ben Haverty, regional manager of the Atlanta marketing area.
