In 1966, Beiter's Appliances began as a three-man partnership in a small building at the rear of 406 Hawthorne Avenue in Williamsport. Within a year, Bob Beiter obtained full ownership with a strong belief in the firm, now known as Beiter's.
In 1970 we moved to a larger store and business boomed. In 1973 we added a store in Bloomsburg (45 miles away). In 1977 we had an opportunity to sell the building we were occupying and we proceeded to build a new building a block down the street. Our new building was much bigger and in 1980 we entered the furniture and bedding business.

While outgrowing our new space, in the fall of 1981 we purchased a building in downtown Williamsport from Wolf Furniture Co. (approximately 40,000 sq. ft.), and added a 32,000 sq. ft. warehouse the following year. Our sales grew steadily, allowing us to buy out Bob's Warehouse Outlet in Lock Haven and the Wolf Furniture Co. location in Sunbury in 1991. In 1998 we added the Mansfield location, and in 2000 Beiter's became Beiter's Home Center with the moving of our Sunbury store to the former Montgomery Wards building.
When opportunity knocks, as the old adages goes, answer it. Which is exactly what we did in 2008 when we opened our fifth store with the acquisition of the formerly Gemberling's Furniture, located in East Lewisburg.
