Simplicity Sofas is carving out a niche in the furniture industry by shipping sofas in three boxes, enabling them to fit through narrow doorways and halls.

The High Point company is also proud that, unlike other customer-assembled furniture, Simplicity sofas are made with solid wood and include a choice of 100 fabrics. And instead of shipping with a trucking company, Simplicity ships via UPS, which reduces shipping fees.

"Our (sofas) will fit through anything that's at least 15 inches wide," explains Jeff Frank, the president of the company.

And the company also prides itself on customer service. Customers deal directly with the manufacturer instead of going through a retailer, who then has to deal with manufacturer.
