Aaron's Rents, Inc. History of Success
It all started in 1955, with an inventory of 300 chairs, that R. Charles Loudermilk rented for 10¢ a day. Today, Aaron’s is the recognized leader in the furniture rental and lease ownership industry. Aaron’s carries top name brands of furniture, appliances, electronics and computers. Aaron’s, has been rated 31st in Georgia’s 100 top-performing companies (Atlanta Journal Constitution) with annual revenues exceeding $500 million.
Three reasons for the success of Aaron’s Sales and Lease Ownership are the Guaranteed Lowest Price (find it anywhere else for less and we’ll pay you $100), everyone is Automatically Pre-Approved, No Credit Needed, and everyone can own their merchandise in as little as 12 months. From the beginning, we moved to the beat of a different drummer by distinguishing and distancing ourselves, our products, and our services from the traditional rent-to-own stores.
Aaron’s continues to be the leader in the nation’s furniture, electronics, appliance and computer rental and lease ownership industries. With over 1000 company and franchise stores already open, we have more new store openings slated for this year. In fact, we are opening almost two stores per week! We have demonstrated we know our business showing a profit for the last 36 quarters. With our rapid expansion and the explosion of the lease ownership market, sign up — don’t get left behind!! Aaron’s is always looking for potential superstars to join our team!
Aaron’s Nascar participation is now solidified by being the proud sponsor of Johnny Benson and the Winston Cup #10 Dream Team and Michael Waltrip and the Busch Series #99 Dream Machine. Aaron’s will also be sponsoring the Aaron’s 312 Race in March at the Atlanta Motorspeed Way. Aaron’s is about “Driving Dreams Home.”
Aaron’s is a company that believes in giving back to the community and demonstrates this by participation in numerous non-profit groups across the country. We are a sponsor of Habitat for Humanity and have built houses in Georgia, Texas, Florida and Ohio with many more planned. On local levels the company sponsors Toys for Tots, Samaritan House, and a company outreach program (ACORP) that donates over $250,000 annually to non-profit groups across the country. One of the main recipients of our ACORP Program has been the “Make a Wish Foundation.” Aaron’s cares about the communities it serves and proves it every day.
We’re about people—our employees and our customers. At Aaron’s we’re in the business of delivering dreams. From great merchandise to great careers, we’re driving your dreams home! |
