In 1893, Abraham and Samuel Shifman established a company dedicated to manufacturing superior quality bedding. Founded in Newark, New Jersey, A. Shifman & Bro. Mattress Company began a tradition of excellence in bedding that has endured for generations.
As the years passed, Shifman's business grew to become the second largest bedding producer in New Jersey. After World War II, Samuel's grandsons, Burton and Robert, joined the company, with Burton in charge of production and Robert in charge of sales.
Michael Hammer, a bedding professional with over 22
years' experience in sales and manufacturing, first with Simmons and later with Stearns
and Foster, entered the picture in 1985. After touring the factory and witnessing
firsthand the tremendous quality built into a set of Shifman bedding, Michael was anxious
to purchase the operation. Since 1985, Michael has instituted a variety of improvements to its manufacturing procedures while maintaining the Shifman tradition. The results have shown remarkable growth year after year with fine furniture and department stores. |
