Company History


   Most people look for cheaper ways to make things.  We look for better ways to make things.  That's an ambitious mission, but it's the way Fixtur-World employees describe the company's vision.

   Fixtur-World is a diversified company which manufactures and installs food service furniture and fixtures, distributes and installs food service equipment and designs and builds commercial and retail fixture displays.

   A privately-held corporation, Fixtur-World's origins reach back more than fifty years in Cookeville, Tennessee.  Now, strategically located in Middle Tennessee's growing industrial community within a day's drive of three-fourths of the U.S. population, Fixtur-World has grown to more than 102,000 square feet and more than 150 full-time employees.

   Every division of the company, every department reflects the vision of Horace Burks, CEO and son of the company's founders:  "To provide the best possible quality of product and level of service."  That's possible because Fixtur-World has not outgrown its people and their commitment to excellence.

  Fixtur-World boasts in-house design; fabrication; field representatives; delivery and installation.  That means your Fixtur-World project will be overseen by quality-conscious Fixtur-World staff from fabrication to installation.  It means real people stand behind every job, behind every product.
