PHILOSOPHY

At HBF our business strategy and operations are based on specific ideals contained within our mission statement. These ideals have been modified as our business has grown, but their original core continues to lead us to additional growth and success.

The first principle in HBF's Mission Ideals states "We are a quality house first". This commitment has dictated the basis of business operations at HBF since its formation twenty years ago.

The belief that "good design sells" has led to the strategy of working with creative and established product designers such as Barbara Barry, Orlando Diaz-Azcuy, John Hutton and Robert A.M. Stern to develop collections of original furniture and textiles designs to offer to the contract market.

"The customer is always first with HBF." We instill with our employees and sales representatives the fact that our business begins with an order and a customer; we increase our success by "exceeding customer expectations". Service is stressed in all areas of our manufacturing and administrative operations.

A fundamental principle of our business operation is that "we care about people". We provide a safe and enjoyable work environment with an attitude that fosters trust, pride and concern for fellow employees and our community.
