Over the course of the COVID-19 shutdown there was some ambiguity as to which businesses could remain open According to Alex Wright of Wright’s Furniture, they felt they were in a gray area in terms of being essential. Ultimately they decided to shut down for safety reasons. That was, until they realized they may be essential.

When customers started reaching out it became clear that Wright’s Furniture needed to explore the possibility of reopening. So they cautiously started selling again.

Just like many businesses, Wright’s saw an increase in their digital footprint. Wright encourages people to interact with them on their social media.

Wright continues saying having good people involved with the company is important for getting through things like a pandemic, and just for success in general.

Wright appeared as a guest on the WTIM Morning Show.
