Darvin said that he&#8217;s simply ready to retire, and there&#8217;s no one to assume the operation.<\/p>\n<p>In Home Furnishings has been in business for 20 years in Natick, Norwood and Danvers and more recently in Hyannis.<\/p>\n<p>In a phone conversation Monday, Darvin underscored the fact that this is not financial, and that it&#8217;s a matter of timing.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My main concern is that all customers are taken care of,&#8221; Darvin said.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the customer service department will stay open for at least a year.<\/p>\n<p>Darvin said that the store has stopped taking new orders, but all outstanding orders will be filled. The store will have a big retirement sale beginning in mid-January to sell off its existing stock.<\/p>\n<p>In Home will eventually consolidate everything to the Natick location, which is expected to remain open at least through March.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Darvin said the retail store in Norwood will become a wholesale outlet for designers, decorators and small retailers, but it will no longer be open to the public.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2013 by TheBostonChannel.com.
