HISTORY

Three generations of the Klausner / Schweig family have been in the patio furniture business in the Dallas / Fort Worth Metroplex.

 In the early 1950's, the Wallenstein family started Sunnyland Furniture on Lower Greenville Avenue in Dallas. Sunnyland moved to far North Dallas to Coit Rd .at Central Expressway just north of Forest Lane.  Freed Furniture Co. purchased Sunnyland from the Wallenstein family in 1970.

Sunnyland became Freed's outlet center and was operated by Aaron Klausner and Pearl Freed Klausner. With Aaron's guidance Freed's Sunnyland entered into a new concept with a store devoted to quality patio furniture. In late 1977 Aaron purchased Sunnyland from Freed’s.

In early 1977 David Schweig married Debbie Klausner (Aaron and Pearl's 3rd daughter). Prior to this, David had worked in the fine jewelry business including managing and operating retail stores.  David and Debbie's goal was to create a company that offered the best value in the Dallas/ Fort Worth Metroplex on quality outdoor furnishings and accessories.  Their primary focus for the company has been to offer stylish merchandise at discounted prices along with exceptional and superior customer service. David & Debbie Schweig purchased Sunnyland Furn. from Aaron and Pear Klausner in 1989.

Reconstruction of Central Expressway took away most of Sunnyland parking and store frontage at its original location. Aaron Klausner purchased the old Spring Valley Shopping Center and Sunnyland relocated to its current location in March, 1991.  In the early 1990s, Sunnyland acquired an oversized Brown Jordan Tamiami chair which has become a local tourist attraction as the unofficial World’s Largest Patio Chair. 

In 2002, in conjunction with an expansion and renovation of the shopping center, Sunnyland began a major transformation and expansion of its showroom, including a 10,000 sq. ft. design showroom addition, new courtyard, and expanded clearance center.  It also moved its warehouse on-site, creating a 65,000 sq ft showroom and distribution center.  Sunnyland celebrated its grand re-opening in 2003 and has been the leading, innovative single showroom store in the USA ever since. 

Today, Sunnyland continues to enjoy steady growth, due to its well-earned reputation for providing only high quality patio furniture and accessories, competitively priced. This reflects the dedication, hard work and commitment to customer satisfaction from our most valued asset, our employees.
