Darby's Big Furniture

Verified by yext

"All roads lead to Darbys' " is a slogan well-known in Texoma. Heard on television and radio and seen on our familiar billboards and delivery trucks, it represents the story of one of Oklahoma's outstanding pioneer families - pioneers in the furniture business. Luck was with B.E. Darby when he came to Duke, Oklahoma in 1905, looking for work picking cotton. Instead, local merchant and landowner A.L. Perry gave him a job in his general store. Young Darby worked hard, quickly learned the mercantile business and, in 1907, joined forces with his brother Robert to open their own store, Darby Bros. General Merchandise Store. The Darby boys soon became an integral part of the growing community of Duke.
