CLEVELAND, OH - Northeast Factory Direct, a retailer of high-quality furniture, mattresses, hot tubs, kitchen cabinets, and more for a lot less than expensive, fancy stores has been donating time on social media and radio commercials, to small local businesses who could use some help.
“By now, people know the story of how I started out of a garage and have grown to have multiple locations, but we struggled to survive back in 2008,” says Alex Nemet, owner of Northeast Factory Direct. “We’ve been fortunate during the past year, but we know that many small, local businesses like ourselves, are in desperate need of help or else they won’t be around when it’s safer for people to get out of the house and get back to more normal routines. So, we wanted to help.”
