Warkigan, Illinois, Industry Veteran Ron King plans to close King's home furnishings here Thursday after 60 years in business. The mid-priced furniture store got its start in 1959 by King's father Henry King, moved just once and just a couple of blocks down the same street, and through this month was still employing the original slogan, where quality tells and price sells. Ron King contacted the day before the store was to close, Ron King said he's been swamped, months after announcing the planned closing in March. Well known in the furniture industry and fond of his days speaking to industry leaders at the former National Home Furnishings Association, conferences and other engagement, King took the reins of the business shortly after his father died in 1964. But he had been working there from day one, he said, adding, that's how dad got free delivery help. Ron King attended Northwestern University's business school and noted that he was the youngest student at the time to graduate from the school's advanced executive institute in the early 1960s. In 1967, King moved the store a couple of blocks down the street to the current 12,600 square foot showroom built at 2,929 Grand Avenue in this Illinois city north of Chicago. At 76, King said he is ready to retire. He has two children who have no desire to work in the business, a son, who is doing well for himself at Bosch, and a daughter, who is a teacher and going for her doctorate degree. She's qualified to run King's, he said, but then he noted something that probably stops a lot of next generation leaders from taking over family owned retail businesses.

Most of my customers are second, third and fourth generation. They And I've got a good reputation because I've sold the city, the country, the fire and police departments. I had a lot of built in business. I didn't have to worry, King wouldn't disclose sales but said he did a year's worth of business in the first 30 days of his closing sale, which started as a wall to wall sell out sale, became a retirement sale in April, then a store closing sale and finally a going out of business sale this month.
