Making Your House a Home FIND THE BEST FURNISHINGS FOR YOUR SPACE AT BILTRITE. SINCE OPENING IN 1928, family-owned BILTRITE Furniture-Leather-Mattresses has grown from a store on Third and Garfield to Mitchell Street to their current 45,000-square-foot showroom in Greenfield. “Customers come from the North Shore, Downtown, Lake Country, Kenosha and more to shop locally,” says BILTRITE’s Randi K., a member of the family business’s fourth generation. “Whether you’re looking for one item or want to furnish your entire home, we have the look and style you want, we work within your budget, and we have thousands of items in stock for quick delivery or pick up.” She says many customers have shopped with BILTRITE for decades. That loyalty comes from the positive experience of shopping local, as well as the better quality furniture BILTRITE has, including hard-to-find American-made furniture, small-scale, flippable mattresses and more. “Since we’re a family-owned business, we really have a passion for this,” Randi K. says. “Our customers shop with us for years because of our quality and personal service.” BILTRITE FURNITURE-LEATHER-MATTRESSES 55430 W.

DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT RANDI K. started working at BILTRITE when she was just a teenager, helping around the Mitchell Street location. As the greatgranddaughter of BILTRITE’s founder, Irwin Kerns, the family business was always a part of her life. She studied interior design at High Point University in North Carolina before returning to BILTRITE, where she currently works alongside her mother, father, brother and sister-in-law. “I love meeting customers who relay stories of how their parents and grandparents shopped with us over the years,” she says. “It’s a testament of true loyalty.”
