About the Company

Mattress Firm

Retailer of mattresses with extensive stores

Mattress Firm is a large retail chain that sells mattresses and sleep products through hundreds of stores. Its model centers on letting customers try beds in-store and arranging fast, often same-day, delivery, with financing options sometimes available. The company grew by acquiring regional mattress chains to build the biggest network of stores, which helped it become the largest U.S. mattress retailer at one point. That expansion also led to over-saturation and financial trouble, including a Chapter 11 bankruptcy and restructuring. Now owned by Somnigroup International (part of Tempur Sealy), Mattress Firm’s goal is to maintain broad reach and accessibility in the mattress market, offering a wide selection and convenient delivery to capture and maintain a leading share of the sleep-products market.
