There is no larger purchase a buyer will make during most hotel FF&E projects than the casegoods package. Therefore, a hotelier who invests time learning more about casegoods is likely to make an informed decision that pays dividends for years to come.

To help shed more light on hotel casegoods, including the latest trends and product features, we have captured the perspective of one of Innvision’s top vendor partners. There is no bigger producer of hospitality casegoods than Kimball Hospitality, who has grown since 1985 to be the largest North American supplier of hospitality furniture for custom projects and brand-specified programs.

Manufacturing Location

Before selecting a provider, a hotelier must know where casegood suppliers manufacture their products. In Kimball’s case, they operate with an import-centric supply chain, utilizing main production facilities in Vietnam, south China, and central Mexico. Additional capabilities in Indiana and Kentucky cater to specific needs and raw material origins. This diversity ensures that each facility is optimized for different product types, incorporating various materials such as power supplies, lighting, hinges, drawer slides, and adjustable levelers, crucial for modern casegoods production.

Market Segment

Before selecting a manufacturer, a hotelier should know which market segments a casegoods provider is best equipped to serve and whether they align well with the property’s needs. In Kimball’s case, they provide casegoods across hotel market segments from upper-midscale to luxury. With five specialized production facilities tailored to different product types, Kimball maintains competitive pricing and exceptional standards, whether crafting Hampton Inn essentials or bespoke Grand Hyatt or boutique hotel designs. Each Kimball manufacturing facility is strategically equipped, from repetitive unit production to intricate material options such as veneers and exotic stones.
