A Message from Bill McLaughlin, President and CEO
I found my Sleep Number® when I joined Select Comfort Corporation and discovered what more than 5 million people now know–that finding your Sleep Number® helps you Discover a More Deep, Restorative SleepSM.
We welcome the opportunity to help you discover your own Sleep Number® and to introduce you to a new generation of sleep comfort and technology. What awaits you is a lifetime of better, more rewarding sleep.
Once you've found your Sleep Number® and have experienced the personalized comfort and support of our unique bed system, I'm confident you'll want to join the sleep revolution we began in 1987. I'm also confident that you'll want to share your better-sleep discovery with family and friends.
At Select Comfort, we know that quality of life is often directly connected to quality of sleep. That's why the Sleep Number® bed was designed based on sleep research. In fact, in independent clinical studies, our bed has been proven to improve sleep quality and reduce back pain. No wonder we welcome more "sleep revolutionaries" to our owner family every day!
The Select Comfort Story
Select Comfort (NASDAQ: SCSS) was founded by an inventor and former innerspring mattress maker who simply wanted a better night's sleep. He created a mattress that uses air-chamber technology, the best medium for providing comfort and support, with the unique attribute of personalized adjustability.
Founded in 1987, the Minneapolis, Minnesota, U.S.A.-based company delivered net sales of $691 million annually. The company has 30 U.S.-issued or pending patents and was recently ranked by trade magazine, Furniture/Today, as the No. 1 bedding retailer in the U.S. for the seventh consecutive year. In addition to the company's headquarters in Minnesota, Select Comfort also has U.S. manufacturing and distribution facilities in South Carolina and Utah. The company employs more than 2,500 people nationally.
Select Comfort has been the "Official Bed Provider" for the U.S. Ronald McDonald House Charities® since January 2001.
Products: Studies show that The Sleep Number Bed by Select Comfort™ relieves back pain and improves sleep quality. More than 50,000 customers have provided testimonials, many saying that they are sleeping better on their Sleep Number® bed than on their old innerspring mattress.
Distribution: The Sleep Number® bed is now available in Canada exclusively at selected Sleep Country Canada stores. The Sleep Number® bed is also distributed in the U.S. at 393 Select Comfort® retail stores and selected bed retailers.
