Legacy
  you can trust

King Business Interiors is a family-owned commercial office furniture and flooring company located in Columbus, Ohio. Founded in 1998, the vision was clear: King Business Interiors will always be more than a furniture vendor. A commitment to going the extra mile for clients has enabled King to grow from a small five-person start-up into an established business with 70+ employees. We have an over 25-year history of bringing top-quality furniture, flooring, and office planning to central Ohio businesses. 

With second-generation family leadership in place, we remain grounded in the same values that built our business from day one. In a changing industry, consistency matters. As the longest-standing name in our market, our next-generation leaders, Chelsea King and Chris King, reflect continuity, care, and a commitment to lasting relationships.

Our Partnerships

Today, King serves hundreds of clients in numerous markets and industries. In addition to being a Haworth furniture preferred dealer, King represents 300 product lines, operates a full service commercial flooring division, offers inventory and warehousing, and provides total move management services. In all that King does, we are dedicated to a single goal: providing customers with a “Zero Punch List.”

Darla King
Hear from Our Founder

With a successful 10-year career with an established furniture company under her belt, Darla King left her position with an offer to partner in a new start-up company.

One year later, the partnership had yet to materialize, and Darla knew a decision needed to be made. Seeing opportunity in her circumstances, Darla and her husband formed King Business Interiors in November 1998.

Watch our founder, Darla King, share the history of our company.
