Legacy of Commitment

In the heart of Pelham, Georgia, a legacy was born in 1915. What began as a modest hardware store has grown into one of the region’s most cherished family businesses—Turner’s Fine Furniture. With over a century of history, the Turner family has built more than a brand; they’ve cultivated a tradition of quality, community, and care.

The story took a transformative turn in the 1930s when the Turners shifted from hardware to selling furniture, recognizing an unmet need for affordable, quality home furnishings. This decision laid the foundation for a business redefining how families across South Georgia and North Florida experience their homes.

Expansion followed as the Turners brought their vision to new communities. Bainbridge welcomed its first store in 1942. By 1961, the third generation of Turners—Moses Wright Turner—had joined the business, blending fresh ideas with timeless values that had become the company’s hallmark. 

The family’s dedication to quality craftsmanship flourished. By the 1980s, the fourth generation—Fortson and Austin Turner—entered the fold, introducing innovations like the first budget store in Valdosta in 1990, ensuring high-quality furniture was accessible to a broader audience.

To meet the diverse needs of their customers, the Turner family introduced two distinct stores: Turner’s Fine Furniture and Turner’s Budget Furniture. This approach ensures nearly every option in quality and style is offered, with a broad price range to fit almost any budget.

If you are on a strict budget and want good quality Ashley Furniture that fits within your means, Turner’s Budget Furniture may be the perfect choice. On the other hand, if your primary concern is better and best quality furniture with more unique styles, Turner’s Fine Furniture offers an unparalleled selection from the best brands including Bernhardt, Wesley Hall, Flexsteel, Hooker, Bradington Young,  La-Z-Boy and Bassett.

Both stores share the same commitment to value and service, offering brand-new furniture at the best prices. Together, they embody the Turner family’s dedication to helping every customer create a home that reflects their unique style and needs.

Turner’s Furniture didn’t just expand geographically—it built a reputation for excellence. Recognition soon followed, with Turner’s earning the prestigious Georgia Trend Magazine Family-Owned Business of the Year award in 2009, a testament to the dedication of the Turner’s employees to the customers. “Thanks to our loyal customers and dedicated employees we have been able to grow and expand over the years,” Fortson Turner says.

Today, the fifth generation of Turners—Wright and Whit Turner—has started a journey in the family business, bringing fresh energy and ideas while honoring the business’s defining traditions. In 2023, Turner’s was named one of Furniture Today’s Top 10 Places to Work, reflecting a workplace culture rooted in family values and mutual respect.

As the company approaches its 110th anniversary in 2025, Turner’s Fine Furniture continues to look forward while cherishing its storied past. With locations spanning Tallahassee, Thomasville, Tifton, Valdosta, Moultrie, Albany, and Warner Robins, Turner’s remains firmly anchored in its local roots, prioritizing the needs of the communities it serves with unlimited possibilities and unbeatable values.
