Abstract:
A. O. Redding, a High Point craftsman, started Alma Furniture in 1885. In 1921, Charles E. Hayworth, Sr. purchased the company, dropped furniture making, and began specializing in wooden desks and other furniture designed for office and institutional use. Alma is now one of the top three producers of wooden office furniture in the country. Sales in 1984 exceeded $70 million, and the company remains a family-owned business.
