Modus Furniture
Modus Furniture International (MFI) is a designer, manufacturer, importer and distributor of contemporary and transitional bedroom, dining room, and home entertainment furniture.[1]
History
Company president Oliver Wong founded parent company Far East American, Inc. (FEA), a plywood trading company, in 1984.[2] In 1989, Mr. Wong returned to his home country of Indonesia to found PT Domusindo Perdana, a furniture factory specialized in the production of wood beds and cribs. Far East American distributed Domusindo's products in the North American market until 1994, when Mr. Wong founded Modus Furniture International, Inc., a privately held California corporation.[3]
Working in partnership with Domusindo, Modus Furniture expanded its product line to include casegoods in the 1990s. Although Mr. Wong has since divested his stake in Domusindo, the companies maintain a close relationship. In 2000, Modus began sourcing products from China, Malaysia and Vietnam, which enabled the company to expand its product offerings beyond Domusindo's manufacturing capabilities to include dining room furniture, home entertainment centers and upholstered beds.
Modus Furniture is headquartered in Los Angeles, CA with showrooms in High Point, NC, Las Vegas, NV[4] and a distribution center in Fontana, CA.[5]

Modus manufactures and distributes products under its own brand name and under the angelo:HOME label designed by HGTV personality Angelo Surmelis.[6] Modus recently announced plans to manufacture corner furniture under the Cornerture brand by furniture designer and craftsman Scott Sallinger[7]

Modus Furniture is sold through various retail channels by independently owned retail stores.[8] Modus Furniture products are widely available in the United States and parts of Canada, Mexico, El Salvador, Panama, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Cayman Islands, China and Indonesia.[9]
