Value City Furniture Store Moving into Former Art Van in Portage
The Crossroads Mall in Portage where Art Van used to be gets a new store as Value City Furniture opens this week. Here's hoping they last longer than Love's.
More good news as we're talking about another business grand opening rather than a permanent closure. The building at 550 Ring Road, near the Crossroads Mall, will be opening on January 20 as Value City Furniture. Many people will remember this location best as Art Van Furniture.
Art Van had their final final liquidation sale (no, it was not held over by popular demand) and suddenly closed in March of 2020. By May, rumors were circulating that another furniture store was moving in, and it was confirmed in July that Love's Furniture would be taking over many former Art Van stores across the state. Love's was a victim of mismanagement and supply chain issues before all of us knew all too well what havoc supply chain interruptions can cause and closed within six months.
