With an average of 1,000 people moving to Florida each year and Broward County’s population projected to increase by an additional 400,000 by the year 2020, there will always be a need for new furniture. I’ve noticed that in Broward County alone, several new furniture stores have opened in recent years so there is no lack of competition. In fact, a few stores with well-established names in other parts of Florida (and even other states) have opened branches in South Florida over the past 3-4 years. If you’re about to buy a new home in Broward County, I hope that you’ll find the following list useful.
Some of the larger South Florida furniture stores:
- American Signature
- Ashley Furniture
- Badcock Home Furniture
- Baer’s Furniture
- Carl’s Furniture
- City Furniture
- El Dorado Furniture
- Furniture Power
- Haverty’s
- Jennifer Convertibles
- La-Z-Boy
- Pier 1
- Pottery Barn
- Robb & Stucky
- Rooms to Go
- Scan Design
There is one name missing that will soon join the list – IKEA, which will be opening its first-ever store in Florida in the next few months (located at the corner of 595/S.R. 84 and 136th Avenue in Sunrise, FL).

I am waiting anxiously myself for IKEA’s Sunrise store to open. I pass by the location a few times a week while working and it looks like it may open soon. When I find out what the grand opening date is, I’ll publish it on my blog!
