It takes more than luck to thrive for over 25 years in the world of contract furnishings. Corporate Concepts has built its unparalleled reputation by delivering high-quality, cost-effective furniture and solutions-plain and simple. And being a certified dealer for hundreds of manufacturers like Knoll, Geiger, and HON hasn't hurt either.


Corporate Concepts is headquartered in Lombard, Illinois, and has an additional sales office in downtown Chicago. We also maintain several warehouse facilities and have extensive strategic partnerships in place, which makes it easy to provide the same high level of service on a nationwide basis.

Our top priority is to provide our clients with the very best in design services, space planning, and specifications, along with timely order entry, tracking, delivery, and expert installation of product. Many other value-added services are available as well, including chair re-upholstery, furniture standards programs and financing consultation.

Dedication to discovering and fully understanding our clients' needs is the foundation on which Corporate Concepts was built. By focusing on these fundamental principles, we have consistently grown our business, and we're proud to be considered an industry leader. It is through our commitment to these goals that we have consistently been recognized as a Knoll Top 10 Dealer worldwide, as well as being named as the 12th Largest Woman Owned Firm in Chicago, Crain's 2003.


Vickie Hansel, Larry Zerante, and Jennifer Cusack founded Corporate Concepts in 1983, perceiving a market need for full-service office furniture solutions in the Chicagoland area. Little did they know, the business would eventually expand to become a $50 million-per-year enterprise.

Corporate Concepts has earned an excellent reputation among leading office furniture manufacturers and prestigious architectural and design firms across the country. In addition, we are certified as a Women's Business Enterprise (WBE) by the City of Chicago. We also partner with an installation firm that is an official Minority Business Enterprise and a member of the Chicago Minority Business Development Council (CMBDC).
