Scan was founded in 1980 by Mogens Libenholt, a young Dane working in the Scandinavian furniture industry.  He set his sights on Southern California and opened a small store in Mira Mesa.  He imported furniture from Denmark, Norway and Sweden, hence our name, Scan Furniture House.  Our early success allowed us to move to a larger location on Morena Boulevard in 1982.  Twenty-five years later, we relocated to Miramar Road, and then to our current location on Clairemont Mesa Boulevard.

 

In January 1982, Mike Hart was hired part time to assemble furniture, mostly because of his carpentry background.  A week later he went full time.  When Scan moved to Morena Blvd. later that year, Mike hired and trained a warehouse crew of six and became de facto warehouse manager.  By 1984 he became store manager and was involved in every aspect of the business.  A year later, he was offered the opportunity to purchase Scan Furniture House and Mike has been in the furniture business ever since.

“Along the way I ran some marathons, surfed a bunch (I live in OB), got married,  built my own home and moved in two weeks before our son was born. I have built and assembled a lot of furniture over the years, which has given me a better appreciation of what quality furniture should be.” – Mike Hart, Owner
