Our Story

Hollis Interiors, formerly known as Hollis Furniture, is a local family owned and operated business. Established in 1952, it was an idea, plan, and creation of our grandfather John Hollis, and father Wayne Hollis. After visiting the Gulf Coast in 1951, they decided to move to Foley and open the furniture store. They offered quality furniture at affordable prices to those in the area. Their humble beginning was serving a primarily farming community even financing in-house to display trust, hard work, and dedication in our community.


In 2003, following in their grandfather's and father's footsteps, Tootsie Hollis Allen and Kelly Hollis, who were raised inside the store, took over the family business and added their specialty of interior design during a dramatic shift in the economy forcing Tootsie and Kelly to work harder than ever, taught by their father to always put the customer first and to go the extra mile doing whatever it takes to get the job completed to perfection.

Hollis Interiors offers complete design services for homes and vacation homes. Working on any budget, we provide access to products that enhance the design and attention to detail and personalized service including furnishings, both new and antique, designer fabrics and home accessories. This venture offers a sense of self that our target market desires and can afford, in a way that is unique from start to finish.

We take pride in what our grandfather and father started and in keeping with their legacy, we will continue to offer beautiful, quality products at fair prices. And always put our clients’ satisfaction first.
