An industry leader in comprehensive commercial furniture services, including installation, relocation, warehousing and project management
ABOUT US + OUR TEAM
A History of Experience and Commitment
JEi was founded in 2003 by Dave Jarka, an industry veteran with more than 30 years of experience in the world of corporate furniture in the demanding marketplace of Silicon Valley, California. As the facility management of fast-growing businesses became ever more complicated, Dave saw an opportunity to serve clients with a business solely focused on all aspects of furniture logistics and organization. Starting with only a few employees and trucks, JEi has now assembled a skilled, trustworthy team.
The company, with the use of state of the art technology, is a world-class service provider with a reputation for dependability, promptness and open communications in their top-quality installation, transport, warehousing and project management. From craning marble conference tables into upper story windows, to lowering the walls of 4,000 work stations in a matter of days, JEi has years of expertise in a wide range of furniture and facilities assignments for its West Coast, North American and global clients.
