About Closet Factory Franchise

Closet Factory started out in California designing and installing custom closets

In the early ‘80s, the closet industry was littered with many small, fledgling companies. The engineering background of Closet Factory founder John LaBarbera provided him with the critical knowledge required to avoid the precarious wall-hung systems that others provided, and to instead, develop a structurally sound floor-based system.

Whether you want the clean look of a classic, all-white, melamine design or a traditional look created with real wood stained to match the other furniture in your home, Closet Factory will give you the look you want. We’ll also provide the quality and craftsmanship necessary for your design to last for years to come.

Own a Piece of Our Success

• Over 38 years ago Closet Factory became a leader in the industry by promoting a floor-based closet system instead of conventional wall-suspended systems. We’re still in that leadership position and all of our competitors attempt to follow in our footsteps. As the owner of a Closet Factory franchise, you stand to gain that position of leadership and benefit as we continually improve and innovate our product offerings and systems.
• Other companies offer a floor-based system as well as simulated wood decorative treatments in their effort to keep up with us. However, no one offers as much as we do. We have found that style and fashion in this industry involve more than simply changing the color of pre-fabricated pieces–it is about having the largest range of products on the market. From melamine materials to custom-stained or painted woods, no one comes close to the extent of our offerings. We understand that it is really to the benefit of our customers that we cater to their unique tastes, needs, and budgets.
• Our proprietary Designer Sales Training series provides you and your sales staff with all of the tools necessary to design and sell everything we offer. We have developed highly effective systems that cover every aspect of the business. Our ongoing operational, design, advertising, and marketing support will help you build a robust business.
• Our franchisees have found that customers will continue to use our services for all areas of their home: closets, home offices, garage cabinets, entertainment centers, wall-beds, pantries, bookshelves, laundry rooms, and more. They will also refer their friends and family to you. Building a book of business in this manner is all the more reason to consider a future with us.
