Wichita, Kan.— Slumberland Furniture has opened two stores in this Kansas city. Grand opening festivities raised over $5,000 for the Wichita Habitat for Humanity.

"We are so pleased with the overall success of the grand opening in the great city of Wichita, and we are delighted to

continue collecting donations for this great cause," said Slumberland founder Ken Larson.

The west Wichita store is on Emerson Street and the east store is on East Kellogg Drive in One Kellogg Place. Each has a showroom of 35,000 square feet, and the west location also has an attached warehouse.

Slumberland had its beginnings in 1967, with the first store in Minnesota opened as a mattress and La-Z-Boy specialty shop. The family-owned company now has 96 corporate and franchise stores in 10 states and is a seller of La-Z-Boy upholstery, Natuzzi leather and both Sealy and Simmons mattresses.
