Fosters Mattress: Local and Family-Owned

More than a dozen years ago, my husband Charles and I moved back to my hometown to fulfill our desire to live in an engaged community as well as his dream of opening a bed store. And we've never regretted that decision. In the years since, we've created a family-owned business that customers return to over and over again, due to the personal, connected, and knowledgable experience they receive. Our Fosters Mattress commercials (and blooper outtakes), have become legendary in the Cedar Valley, where the community has enjoyed connecting with our family, particularly our children, in this lighthearted way.

Why should you care that Fosters Mattress is a small, family-run business? A local business is a part of the community in which it resides, from interpersonal relationships to supporting local events and organizations to contributing to the local economy. Local businesses recycle a much larger share of their revenue back into the community compared to non-local businesses. And we are here to stay - meaning that you will run into us at the grocery store or elsewhere, and when you do, we want to know that your Fosters Mattress purchase has been a satisfying one.

Whether you are familiar with our family business or you have not yet stopped into our warm and welcoming store, come on by. We'd love to see you and show you around. And if you see one of our Fosters Mattress Subarus out and about, give us a friendly wave. We'll be happy to return the greeting!
