In 1969, Bill and Dottie Coley opened a 7500-square-foot factory in Newton, North Carolina, hired 10 people, and began crafting wood-framed upholstery pieces. In 1972 Chic Robinson joined the team as Executive Vice President in charge of financial, production, and administrative functions and helped propel LEE to a new level. From that humble beginning, LEE has expanded to four manufacturing plants and has grown to be a leader and innovator in environmentally friendly manufacturing practices.

Since its inception, the mission of LEE Industries has been to create innovatively styled, high-quality home furnishings while adhering to a set of values that focus on their customers, the community, and the environment.

All LEE Industries products are made in the United States. In four manufacturing facilities in North Carolina, LEE employs over 670 skilled associates who create one-of-a-kind products. Even with a global supply network, 98% of the components in LEE products are supplied domestically, and most suppliers are in North Carolina.

Since 1969, LEE has been committed to manufacturing earth-friendly products, using sustainable processes by people who care about the environment. In the early 1980s, LEE chose to use products that eliminated chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) in foam cushions before it was mandated. Around the same time, LEE initiated waste reduction and recycling programs in all parts of the manufacturing process. It was taking these small, simple steps that laid the groundwork for future eco-friendly manufacturing.

Caring for your lee uncovered products is very simple. If your pieces are slipcovered, remove the cover and place in a washing machine with a cold temperature setting. Bleach and detergent can be used. Air dry your slipcovers and replace the covers to the frame. If your products are fully upholstered, spray the piece with a cleaning agent, using a soft bristle brush to clean. Rinse with a water hose and let the piece dry naturally.
