Shifman Mattress Company recently announced that this year marks the company’s 125th year of operation in Newark, New Jersey. In order to celebrate this milestone, Shifman will showcase a 125th Anniversary Limited Edition mattress set at its High Point showroom in April. The two-sided mattress features luxurious surface comfort, tack-and-jump quilt design, and natural cotton layers, complimented with a working coil boxspring. The target retail selling price is $1,999 for a queen set. “This bed offers tremendous value for our retail partners and continues Shifman’s tradition of offering exceptional comfort, quality and value,” Hammer added.

As a family-owned business, Shifman has focused on manufacturing excellence and products providing long lasting comfort. “In 125 years, our methods of ensuring quality haven’t changed,” said Mike Hammer, CEO, “We value our long-standing reputation for quality within the industry and among our customers, and we hope to spend another 125 years exceeding their expectations.” While the manufacturing world has changed considerably, Shifman continues to produce luxury, two-sided mattresses handcrafted with natural cotton on eight-way hand-tied upholstery coil boxsprings. “The consistent commitment our craftspeople take to manufacture the finest handmade mattresses in the world is a philosophy that remains strong in our factory today,” stated Bill Hammer, president.

2018 also marks Shifman’s 10th year exhibiting at the High Point Furniture Market. “Showing at High Point Market allows us to see many of our existing dealers and the opportunity to meet prospective retailers that can differentiate their product offering and improve customer satisfaction by carrying Shifman quality products,” stated Tim Wade, national sales manager.
