About Us

As an independent dealer we look to market ourselves as a specialty appliance outlet. Our focus is to the residential appliance products. We choose products that are going to be the best possible value for function and quality. We display product in a large but not overwhelming showroom so clients can focus on the products they need. Our staff is knowledgeable and courteous and would love to walk you or client around our showroom where they can see, touch, and eel the products to make the right purchase decision.
Since 1913
We have been in business since 1913 and in our third generation of family. We are one of only .5% of businesses that can say they have been established that long. We take great pride of that fact. Since we have been established for so long, we are a financially strong business you can be assured will be here when you need us. We practice responsible business morals and strong ethical behavior to maintain our integrity or you and your clients.
History
Novak and Parker was founded in 1913 by Joe Novak and Robert Parker. They established their business in an effort to serve their community much like it is established today. Now in its third generation of Novak ownership, unlike most businesses, we do not feel much has changed. There is still a need for businesses that provide quality goods and services to their community. There were and are always new products and services to embrace. It is our job at serving our community to bring you the best possible products and services our industry has to offer.
