John Gabbert grew up in his father’s  business—Gabberts, a popular furniture chain in the midwest—but in the late 1970s he split off on his own. The result was Room & Board, a furniture brand focused on modern design; American manufacturing, and a slow-and-steady pace of growth that has paid off over the decades. 

On this episode of the podcast, Gabbert speaks with host Dennis Scully about the business book that became his bible, why he refuses to take private equity money and how he got away from the industry’s obsession with newness.

This episode is sponsored by Loloi Rugs and Hector Finch.
