Barrows History

Barrows was created in 1988 by Mike Turner and Sue Thompson as a purchasing company for senior living projects. In 1955, Barrows was chosen to partner with Steelcase, a leading furniture product store.

Chris Clemmer joined Barrows as an account manager in 2004 with a long-term goal of carrying on the Barrows legacy. In 2018, Chris officially purchased Barrows, still with the passion of creating beautiful commercial spaces.
