History
When two brothers - Benny and Joe Friedman - started a small junk store in downtown Petaluma just after World War II, little did they know what their dream would become over 70 years later. Benny's son, Bill Friedman, and his uncle, Harry Friedman, guided the company's growth to three stores in two counties. Today, Bill's son, Barry Friedman, has joined his dad in the family business. Three generations of Friedman's now celebrate over 70 years of success, over 70 years of being able to give back to their community, and over 70 years of forging customer relationships that mean more today than ever. To our 385 employees, our vendor partners, and our thousands of customers throughout the North Bay - we'd like to say thanks for making our dream so much more than we ever could have imagined. And we'd like to think to that maybe we've helped just a little in making your dreams come true too.
