Sadler’s Furniture Ashley Furniture Sadler’s Outlet

About Us:

Sadler’s has been serving Alaskans since 1972. As with many Alaskan owned businesses, Sadler’s started very small with one tiny store in Chugiak. Due to a continued commitment in customer satisfaction, Furniture Enterprises of Alaska and Sadler’s has grown from those humble beginnings into the largest retailer of home furnishings in Alaska.

Dave Cavitt, President and owner, started in 1975 and helped open the Sadler’s stores in Sterling and Fairbanks and to move from the original Chugiak location to Anchorage. In 1989, the Cavitt’s purchased Sadler’s from the original owners. 2025 marks another milestone with the opening of the Sadler’s store complex in Wasilla. This 104,000 sq. ft complex includes a new Sadler’s store, an Ashley Furniture Store and a Sadler’s outlet center.
