For over a century, the Urner family and Urner's have both been an integral part of Bakersfield, with contributions to our community and local charities. We are a family and employee owned business that has grown to one of the largest independent Major Home Appliance, Furniture and Mattress dealers in the area.
Because of unprecedented growth, we need to hire 2-3 new retail salespeople to join our team. Our strategic partnership with
BrandSource, a national buying group gives us $17B in buying power. We’re big enough to compete against the “box stores” but small enough to provide that white glove service that customers demand and expect in Bakersfield.
