Financial Analyst

About JONATHAN LOUIS INTERNATIONAL Thanks for stopping by. We’re a national, fashion-forward furniture brand led by two hardworking visionaries with a dream that began decades ago: to create stylish furniture that was well-made and affordable. We proudly carry on the legacy of our original founder, Mr. David Harrow, whose incredible foresight and diligence in 1985 paved our way in becoming one of the largest furniture manufacturers in the United States. But there’s more behind that story. We’re a proud collective of passionate artists, designers, creators and builders -- many of whom have been with us since day one. We’re also moms, dads, sisters and brothers. Together, we make up Jonathan Louis, a family-owned and operated furniture manufacturer based in California delivering high quality, artfully designed pieces that are inspired by creativity, imagination, and, most of all, self-expression. Our countless configurations, colors, styles and fabrics help bring out your individual style, transforming you into the artist. After all, we’re not in the business to furnish our space -- it’s all about yours. Your style. Your statement.
