 PROFILE
Whether you've always lived in the same house or are moving into your first apartment, the first stop in decorating is Pier Import Europe. Pier Import operates nearly 150 home furnishings stores throughout Europe. The stores sell furniture, home decorations, kitchen and bath accessories, silverware and china, gifts, and toys. The company has shifted away from exotic items such as rattan chairs and Thai statuettes to focus on everyday products like corkscrews and bathroom accessories. Pier Import stores are mostly in France, with about 10 in Switzerland and Spain. The company also franchises outlets in Italy, Portugal, and the Middle East. The Touret brothers own 64% of Pier Import Europe.
