by HILDEBRAN, N.C. – Recently Home News Now got to visit Baker Interiors Group’s 700,000-square-foot case goods plant here. The tour offered a first-hand look at the transformation Baker has made from a made to inventory-centric model towards more of a made-to-order business that produces only sold goods.
While there is some wood processing that takes place through the use of highly sophisticated CNC equipment, much of the work is done by the facility’s estimated 100 workers, who produce goods in custom finishes and custom sizes. Their work in this “designers’ workroom” is mostly done by hand, creating a sense of craftsmanship and value that is part of the company’s long-time legacy.
Below are photos taken during the tour that show some of the people and processes that make it all happen.
