Palliser Rooms EQ3 is an independent furniture store that has been operating in Saskatoon for over ten years. The store specializes in offering a generous selection of contemporary furnishings (predominantly Canadian brands) and a personalized service that is forward-thinking and client-focused. Customer reviews describe Palliser Rooms as a "great shopping experience," "with exceptional sales staff," "best displays and best furniture in town," and the kicker: "great delivery service." The comments reflect the company's commitment to providing excellent customer service and speak to their impeccable taste and attention to detail.
In 1944, Palliser originated as a producer of simple wood products in the basement of the home of founder A. A. DeFehr, transitioning to a chicken barn and then the first factory in 1948. Products changed from unfinished wood items to finished furniture and to custom coloured bedroom and occasional tables. The design and value paralleled post war developments. Founder A. A. DeFehr was an early adopter of European technology and modern fashion. The Canadian economy prospered and the DeFehr family participated in this growth. The business survived a catastrophic fire in 1961 that resulted in the building of their first modern factory.
Since their humble beginnings, Palliser has evolved and grown, and in 2016, Palliser was named one of Canada’s Best Managed Companies in 2015 for Business Performance Excellence. Canada's Best Managed Companies is the country's leading business awards program, recognizing excellence in Canadian owned and managed companies:
- with revenues over $10,000 000; and
- who have implemented world-class business practices in the areas of strategy, capability, commitment, and financial strength.
Palliser was built on values representing the faith of the founders and the importance of community. Palliser is committed to retain and represent these values. The design of Palliser products will continue to evolve to reflect our changing world but will demonstrate a special emphasis on the contemporary and modern designs that require more attention to detail and precision. Whatever the future holds, the people of Palliser will continue to work together to produce high quality products that provide consumers across North America the opportunity to GET TOGETHER.
