History

Established in 1923.

My Grandfather was a pretty funny guy.  The name Yale is a reference to Yale University.  He was an immigrant with no formal education, so he probably thought it was hysterical.

He was the first of 5 brothers to settle in America, when they had enough money another relative would immigrate.  They actually worked to assist the last brother, my Uncle Jack, through medical school. Grandpa really was a good man

In 197?, my Father started running the company.  In 1984, his landlord informed him the building was sold, and he had to vacate after 30 years.  We were on Portland street previously.  On the coldest day of 1984, I measured the building on Freeport with him, and we moved later that year

I am the sole survivor since 2003, but have considerable help from a ton of very good, committed people

In 2015, we became a chain moving to Framingham off RTE 9 at 215 Worcester St.  I love the old brick building building of Dorchester, but it was much easier working with a regular building

Steve S.

Business Owner

I have an uninteresting bio.  I started at Yale at 7 years old hanging light fixtures, worked in the warehouse, deliveries, customer service and sales

All are essential in providing an exceptional customer experience.  Any and every store now sells appliances, but the installation, delivery and service are the hardest parts

I know you have tons of places to shop.  Our job is to be price competitive and flawless on the execution

Thank you for your consideration,

Steve
