Doerr Furniture was founded by Charles L. Doerr, Sr. in 1938 and continues to serve its loyal customers throughout Southeast Louisiana and the Gulf South. They are now a fourth-generation family business, rooted in the history of New Orleans.
Located in a former Ford Motor dealership in the Faubourg Marigny, Doerr Furniture originally began as a wholesale business selling rocking chairs crafted in the Family’s back shed before transitioning into a retailer that sold furniture and appliances. While in business, the building was commandeered during World War II and played a part in the transport of materials via the railroad track along the Mississippi River located a few blocks away. After achieving victory, Doerr was able to fine tune its business motto and discovered the value of quality furniture and superior service. Along with the day-to-day operations at Doerr Furniture, Charles, Sr. also helped found Metairie Bank and Rhodoro Furniture.
