As the second world war was drawing to a close, a young serviceman and his pregnant wife had recently relocated to Spokane and were just beginning their entrepreneurial journey that would span seven decades and three generations. The company was ACME Electric, the date was October 15th, and the young couple were my grandparents, Arch and Helen Hanley. Opening a small shop on the corner of East Sprague and Pittsburg, Arch’s vision was to provide superior products and outstanding customer service. 

80 years later, while our products have changed and the company has reinvented itself tostay current, that vision remains the same—a dedication to our customers, community and friends who have supported us and allowed us to become one of Spokane's premier furniture showrooms.

The evolution of ACME Electric has seen a radio repair shop become a television store (ACME TV), a television store become Spokane’s first PC store, and then as you know it now, a home furnishings showroom.
