Despite a challenging economic climate, Leader's Casual Furniture will strengthen its Florida market share by opening a new retail location in Southwest Florida.

The Largo, Fla.-based retail chain expects its 19th retail outlet to open before the end of August. A single 120,000-sq.-ft. distribution center supports all of its stores.

“Growing steady, with systems in place to keep control, and always keeping a watchful eye on expenses has allowed us to take advantage of a great opportunity to expand our market segment,” said Tim Newton, managing director. “We will be here for our customers for the long term and are excited to make it more convenient for our existing southeast Naples and Marco Island clientele to visit a Leader's showroom.”
