Eakes Office Solutions, a provider of business products and solutions, is celebrating their 75th anniversary this year. Founded in 1945 by Howard Eakes, the company has grown from two employees in Grand Island, Nebraska, to over 250 employees spanning 13 locations across Nebraska.
By some estimates, about one-half of U.S. office workers are working from home or elsewhere rather than their company’s offices. The move to home offices has been going on for a number of years, but the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in a rapid change in the workplace in 2020.
Many workers will return to the office when the pandemic ends, but it is likely that many will continue to work at home, at least part of the time.
As work and home environments converge, Davis Furniture continues to rise to the challenge. One year after celebrating its 75th anniversary, the fourth-generation family-owned North Carolina company has launched an understated series of seating, office, and lounge collections that suggest myriad possibilities and configurations. Davis’ current offerings blend novel aesthetic forays with intriguing variations on its iconic lines. All items are crafted from the highest quality materials with artisanal attention and detail.
