The Kent-Coffey Manufacturing Company was started in 1907 by Harold Coffey in Lenoir, North Carolina. Along with his friends, neighbors and competitors James Broyhill and John Bernhardt, he was one of the early leaders in establishing the North Carolina furniture industry in the early 1900s. The Kent-Coffey collections of the 1950s and 1960s were solidly built and priced so the average consumer could afford them, resulting in their being very popular. The brand is experiencing a new surge of interest, as young MCM afficionados are beginning to become familiar with the name and add Kent-Coffey pieces to their growing collections.
