At age 27, Brandon Mardossian is still working his first
job. And he couldn't be happier. Mardossian and his wife, Ashley, recently
took over ownership of Northville's Sawmill furniture shop.
The purchase of the solid wood furnishings store was the destination
point in a career dream that started when Mardossian turned 14. "From
the day I got my first job here, I knew this is what I wanted to do,"
Mardossian said. Mardossian's first job at The Sawmill was working in
stock. Over time, he jumped around to deliver, manufacturing, sales
and eventually, management.
The purchase of The Sawmill was made official January 1,
2001. Mardossian
said he had no definitive plans for changing the way The Sawmill did
business, but qualified that statement by saying that changes of some kind
were almost inevitable at some stage of the game. "With anything,
there's always change involved," he said. "We'll take it as it comes.
Time will tell." Mardossian said
The Sawmill separates itself from fellow furniture stores by
specializing solid wood furnishings with custom finishes. The store
also does custom manufacturing of furniture in any size and any color,
Mardossian said. |
