Smitty's Furniture
At the heart of everything we do is an independent family business that aims to provide excellent service to our customers with the widest selection of high-quality Canadian-made furniture and craftsmanship you won’t find anywhere else. The first Smitty’s store was opened in 1949, and since then, Smitty’s has been committed to providing Canadians with fine furnishings for their homes. To this day, Smitty’s founding family still plays an active role in our operations. Smitty’s takes pride in being a trusted Canadian furniture retailer serving areas of Southern Ontario.
