Brown's Furniture Showplace opened for business back in 1939, originally as a discount furniture and appliance business. The owners were Mr. Herbert Brown and Mr. Wayne Gilmore. In 1962, 18 year old Jasper Fontenot joined the business and began working his way up the ladder. Brown's Furniture has had a number of locations all over the state of Louisiana, and today operates in 5 locations: Lafayette, Opelousas, Alexandria, Ville Platte and Eunice, and Mr. Fontenot and his family own the entire business.

Brown's is proud to offer quality and well recognizable name brands, such as La-Z-Boy, Ashley, TempurPedic, Lane, Englander, Pulaski, Samuel Lawrence, Klaussner, England, Bernhardt and more. The number one goal at Brown's Furniture is a satisfied customer, and that means great name brands at great prices. Fast delivery and finance terms to meet each customer's need is the way that Brown's has been doing business for years.
