At Liberty Lagana Furniture, our journey
began in 1934 with the late Joseph Lagana, Sr. at the inception of Liberty Auto
Stores. Originally focused on automotive and hardware goods, the company evolved
over time, transitioning into furniture and electronics to better serve the
needs of our growing community.
In 1975, ownership passed to the second generation when Joseph Lagana, Jr. took
the helm. Under his leadership, the business flourished, adapting to the times
while staying true to our family values.
By 2003, Liberty Lagana's third generation, Matt Lagana, joined
full-time, continuing the legacy with energy and innovation. Matt officially
became the owner in 2006 after Joseph Jr.’s retirement and immediately set his
sights on growth. Between 2007 and 2010, the showroom at 75 West Main Street saw
multiple expansions, adding over 4,800 square feet of additional display space.
This included a new second floor featuring youth furniture, dining sets, sleep
sofas, and more.
In 2018, we took a significant step forward with the opening of the
10,000-square-foot Liberty Lagana Sleep Center at the corner of West Main and
Grove Street. This space showcases a premium selection of mattresses and
adjustable bases, making it easier than ever for our customers to find the
perfect fit for a good night’s sleep.
In 2024, we were deeply saddened by the unexpected passing of Joseph A. Lagana,
Jr. His dedication, leadership, and passion for the family business laid the
foundation for everything we’ve built today. His legacy continues to guide us as
we move forward.
We are
now proudly entering the fourth generation with the involvement of Leo Lagana,
born in 2017. At such a young age, Leo enjoys spending time at the store during
summer breaks and on weekends just like his father did, helping out and even
starring in our social media commercials. His enthusiasm is a reflection of the
family values that have guided us through the decades.
Now in 2026, we are proud to celebrate 92 YEARS IN
BUSINESS! This milestone
wouldn’t have been possible without the trust and support of our incredible
customers. Your loyalty has been the cornerstone of our success, and we’re
deeply grateful to you for making Liberty Lagana Furniture a part of your homes
and lives.
Here’s to 92 years of excellence, family tradition, and community—and to many
more!
