Careers

Join the Old Cannery
Family.

We're one of the Pacific Northwest's most beloved furniture destinations — and we're always looking for great people to grow with us.

More Than a Job

The Old Cannery Furniture Warehouse has served the Pacific Northwest for decades. We're a destination — not just a furniture store. When you join our team, you become part of a community known for its warmth, history, and genuine commitment to customers.

🤝

Family Atmosphere

We treat every team member like family — because we've been a locally-owned family business from the start.

📈

Room to Grow

Whether you're starting out or looking for your next step, we invest in people who want to build a career with us.

🏆

Respected Name

Work for a brand customers trust and love — complete with our famous Fudge Factory, model trains, and rich history.

📍

Sumner, WA

Conveniently located in Sumner — a great community with easy commutes from the South Sound area.

🎉

Community at Heart

We host free public events all year — from the beloved Bridge Lighting to summer hot dogs and more. Working here means being part of something bigger than furniture.

🚂

Unlike Any Other Job

G-scale trains run overhead. Fudge gets made fresh down the aisle. There's no workplace quite like The Old Cannery — and that makes it hard to leave.

Current Opportunities

We hire for attitude and train for skill. If you're enthusiastic, reliable, and love working with people, we want to hear from you.

  • Assemble furniture for customers at management's direction
