Change of Ownership Summer 2026
A New Chapter
The Sofa Bed Store entered a new chapter under new ownership in June 2026. We remain proudly Canadian owned and operated, with the same commitment to quality products, knowledgeable advice and personal customer service.
Below are answers to some of the questions you may have about the transition and what it means for our customers.
The Change of Ownership
Q: What has changed at The Sofa Bed Store?
The ownership of The Sofa Bed Store changed in June 2026, when Tristan Lockie acquired the company’s assets.
James Flynn and Shannon Demers built The Sofa Bed Store over more than 12 years, establishing a Canadian business known for distinctive and comfortable sofa beds and personal, knowledgeable service.
We are building carefully on that history. Quality remains at the heart; both in the products we sell and in the service we provide. Our goal is to make buying a sofa bed as easy, clear and frictionless as possible, so that every customer will love their purchase for years to come.
Q: What are your plans for The Sofa Bed Store?
Our first priority is to preserve and strengthen what customers already value. That being excellent products, honest advice and attentive personal service.
Over time, we intend to make it even easier to explore, purchase and receive our sofa beds and recliners. We will continue developing our delivery capabilities and expand where we work and who we work with while improving our online presence.
We have exciting plans and will share more as they develop. Please follow us on social media, and watch and contribute, as the next chapter unfolds.

Q. Can you remove my existing sofa, sofa bed, or couch?
Availability of this service varies by location and we will always ensure the disposal of an old sofa or sofa bed is handled responsibility and wherever possible see if it can find another home. An additional charge does apply, so please ask us about removal when discussing your delivery.
Q. What do you need to know about access to my home or delivery location?
Very little, but it always is helpful to know if anything could impact delivery, including:
- Stairs or narrow staircases

- Restricted parking or loading access
- Basement or upper-floor rooms
- Rural or remote access
Our sofa beds’ modular construction means they can be delivered into many spaces that would be difficult for a conventional sofa, couch, bed or sofa bed to access. We will review the available measurements and access information with you so that delivery can be planned confidently.
