Empire & Co. Press Release

February 2026

New York, NY — February 10, 2026 — Empire Office, Inc., one of the nation’s largest commercial furniture and interior solutions providers, proudly unveils its rebrand as Empire & Co. Building on 80 years as a trusted, single-source partner in a rapidly evolving industry, Empire & Co. is scaling its services to meet the demands of the residential, hospitality and retail markets. This pivotal expansion primes the company for continued success within the modern interiors landscape.

 

“Diversification is key to resilience in today’s economy,” says Jocelyn Corrigan, COO of Empire & Co. “As the boundaries between the commercial, hospitality, and residential sectors become increasingly fluid, we are seamlessly translating our eighty years of workplace expertise to these new verticals. By leveraging our national presence, we will continue to deliver design-driven solutions that meet our clients’ broadening needs.”

 

Empire & Co.’s ability to lead through change is rooted in the company’s history. From the first sale on Wall Street in 1946 to its current standing as a three-generation, family-owned business, the company has grown to over 500 employees and 500 manufacturers. Through 80 years of industry change, Empire & Co. has remained focused on the partnerships and high standards that define long-term success.

 

“Empire was founded by my grandfather, who believed that strong relationships and quality work drive lasting growth,” says Peter Gaslow, president and CEO of Empire & Co. “That same mindset will guide us as we celebrate this crucial milestone while entering an exciting new chapter for the business. The industry is progressing rapidly, and we’re turning that momentum into opportunity by expanding our ability to serve clients across multiple markets with a wider geographic footprint.”

 

In September 2025, Empire & Co. welcomed Model Home Interiors into its portfolio. The acquisition dovetails the company’s hospitality experience with a formal entry into the B2B residential sector, extending its physical reach into North Carolina and Maryland. Model Home Interiors, a premier design, furnishing, and installation provider specializing in turnkey solutions for lifestyle real estate, broadens Empire & Co.’s expertise through new project typologies, including multifamily, student housing, senior living communities, and model homes. This acquisition lays a strong foundation for a series of high-impact investments and acquisitions slated for 2026, that will set the stage for Empire & Co.’s ambitious growth strategy for decades to come.

 

As part of its comprehensive rebrand, Empire & Co.’s newly redesigned website features a dynamic, modern, and visually-driven look that unifies all brands under Empire & Co. and showcases the company’s refreshed range of services. Later this year, the company will further bolster its presence on the East Coast with a new showroom in Miami. As Empire & Co. continues to grow, its core focus remains on maintaining long-term alliances built on trust and a commitment to client satisfaction.
