Livingood’s Appliances and Bedding hosted a grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony at its new store, located at 1225 East U.S. Hwy 80 in Pooler, Ga. The locally owned company is celebrating 42 years this month.

Complimentary gifts from the Livingood’s team were given to all visitors and guests could enter to win a $3,000 Livingood’s gift certificate.

Several local dignitaries and vendor representatives attended, as well as, Mayor Lamb of Pooler.

The new 12,000-square-foot showroom was built by the Dewitt Tilton Group of Savannah and is the third Savannah-area store for the family-owned appliance and mattress company. Founded in 1976, Livingood’s operates showrooms in Savannah and Okatie, S.C., offering major brands that include Sub Zero/Wolf, Thermador, Bosch, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, JennAir, Serta, Tempur-Pedic, Electrolux, Frigidaire, Maytag and General Electric.

“We are excited to be able to offer a more convenient location for our expanding customer base in Pooler and west Savannah,” said Phyllis Livingood, president and co-owner of Livingood’s. “This new store gives consumers access to the recognizable brand names they want, with the added advantage of a local shopping experience.”

Pooler was ranked as one of the top ten fastest growing cities in Georgia in 2018. HomeSnacks, a company that gathers and combines data from the U.S. Census and other sources, reported Pooler’s population of 21,131 in 2018 has tripled since the 2000 U.S. Census.

Showroom hours for the new Pooler location will be Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
