During the past 17 years, Sklar Furniture Company, owned and directed by the Sklar brothers (Sam, Harry, Joe and Louis) has developed :a kind of "philosopher's stone" for the furniture industry. It will not convert base metals into gold --but it has converted the back- ward and anitquated methods of furniture making into a modern and highly efficient industry. They simply adopted the latest in industrial and product engineering techniques to furni- ture manufacturing. The offspring: high volume production, directed towards giving the consumer quality at economy prices. A byproduct: a staff of highly skilled craftsmen, whose con- stant efforts are involved in producing a limited part of the overall work content, efficiently. DOUBLING CAPACITY As a result of the success of this , Sklar is announ-|jn charge of production, Har, cing that it is doubling its plant/is vice-president at |fabrie design and selection, and Joe is vice-president in charge of Product Development. capacity to 220,000 square feet, at a time when the industry as a whole is encountering some of its most difficult competitive days, Their one-year old Whitby plant isn't obsolete.
