The furniture facility filled with state-of-the art, computer driven, laser-cutting machines stands beside the Blackwater River in Callaway, high in the Franklin County hills. The facility’s spacious—and expanding— interior carries the scent of freshly milled oak, maple, cherry—and of freshly made espresso and, midday, of gourmet meals prepared for the staff of seven. Welcome to SleepSafe Beds.
