LAS VEGAS-Wickes Furniture has set its sights on the Las Vegas Valley. The mid-priced furniture retailer plans to open its first three stores here in 2007. Company president and CEO John Disa tells GlobeSt.com he has secured two locations and is close to identifying a third.

Based in Wheeling, IL and owned by Sun Capital Partners, Wickes currently operates approximately three dozen stores in the greater Chicago, Los Angeles, Minneapolis and Portland, OR areas. Wickes last entered a new market in the 1990s, when it quickly opened three stores and a distribution center in the Portland area.
