Where Furniture Means Family

Grand Opening - August 28, 1953

Mikos and Matt Furniture has been serving the furniture needs of families of Fort Dodge and the surrounding communities since August of 1953 when they first opened their doors. The location has never changed but the store has been remodeled and updated several times to accommodate the growing business.

The original owners of the classic furniture business were the late Walter Mikos, his father-in-law Hugh Matt and Hugh’s son, Bob Matt. The interest in selling furniture started with the Matt family back in Carroll, Iowa during the 1920’s. In 1963, Walter and Mary Ann Mikos became the sole owners. The current owner is second generation John Mikos, son of Walter and Mary Ann. John started in the family business in 1983 and became owner in 1998. He became president of the company after his father’s untimely death following a car accident.

Customer service and quality furniture have been the focus of the business since day one. Walter Mikos built this tradition of customer service and quality, and today it lives on through John Mikos.
