May 15, 2010 - As its consumer
products have been increasingly
making their way onto leading
retail floors throughout the
United States, mattress
manufacturer
Anatomic Global said it was
more than doubling its
production facility and adding
30-percent to its workforce to
keep up with demand.
The company said it was adding
140,000 square feet of
manufacturing space at its 1241
Old Temescal Road facility, for
a total of 240,000 square feet.
The expansion will occur in
phases and is expect to be
completed by the end of the
year. At that time, Anatomic
will operate one of the largest
mattress manufacturing and
distribution centers in
California. The company will
also add 30 new production jobs,
bringing its total workforce to
nearly 130.
86-percent increase in sales
over the past seven months from
Anatomic Global
The driver of the expansion is a
dramatic, 86-percent increase in
sales over the past seven months
from Anatomic Global’s
proprietary plant-based
EcoMemoryFoam Pure7 Series™
line. The mattress line is
quickly becoming the choice of
consumers in the memory foam
segment of the industry as a
result of its comfort and
environmentally-friendly
properties.
During this time, Anatomic
Global opened several major
retail chains including:
Linder’s Furniture, the leading
case goods retailer in Southern
California; Beck’s Furniture;
and Mattress King. The company
has continued to expand its
presence with national retailer
Relax The Back, Back to Bed, the
leading sleep shop retailer in
Chicago, and The Bed Store,
serving the St. Louis market.
“This has been a very exciting
time of growth for our company.
Consumer demand for our products
are at an all time high and we
are seeing new retail
relationships blossom on a
regular basis,” said Anatomic
Global President Jeff Scorziell.
“We believe that the additional
manufacturing space and staff
will enable us to continue our
growth trajectory for many years
to come.”
Anatomic Global is a sustainable
movement corporation and its
Ecomfort Mattresses are
earth-friendly to the core. A
significant portion of the
EcoMemoryFoam™ formulation is
comprised of a plant-based
product. The product uses less
energy to process, conserving
energy, and the process is fully
contained in a patented zero
emissions chamber, dramatically
reducing the product’s impact on
the environment from its
inception.
Founded in 1989, Anatomic Global
is a fully integrated, EDI
capable globally positioned
distribution, logistics and
fulfillment-company that today
incorporates the brand
development and marketing
insight of bedding industry
leaders to meet the needs of its
customers. Deeply rooted in the
medical mattress industry, in
2008 the company applied its
medical manufacturing expertise
and launched the Ecomfort
Mattress brand featuring its
signature, exclusive
EcoMemoryFoam™ extreme open-cell
plant-based memory foam.
