Sigman-Mills Furniture celebrates milestone anniversary

CONYERS — What began in 1951 with a borrowed truck, a handful of catalogs, and a young entrepreneur determined to build his own business has grown into one of Rockdale County’s longest-running family-owned retail establishments. Seventy-five years later, Sigman-Mills Furniture Company is celebrating a milestone spanning three generations of family ownership, decades of changes in the furniture industry, and Conyers’ growth from a small town into a thriving community. The company will celebrate its 75th anniversary Saturday, Nov. 14 from 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., with a special La-Z-Boy recliner raffle, $75 gift card giveaways, balloon-pop discounts, storewide savings and refreshments at its Conyers showroom.

Their children, Steven Mills and Caroline Mills Williams, now help run the company day to day. “There’s a lot of pride that comes with being a part of a family business that has lasted so long in a small community,” Carol said. “There aren’t many third-generation businesses around today.” For Tom, building a successful business was a goal shaped by the hardships
