Ohio Woman Starts Furniture Company to Fill Concealed Carry Niche

By Jenn Jacques

I love the atmosphere at the NRA’s Great American Outdoor Show for many reasons, but a big reason is that it gives smaller companies a chance to get in front of consumers and industry members.

One such company is Secret Compartments Furniture. Owner Jill Herro says when she took a concealed carry class eight years ago, she wanted a way to store her firearms around her home in a practical, safe and fashionable way.

“When I looked online for some way to store my gun around the home, there was just nothing,” Herro told me. “I mean, we’re talking 7-8 years ago, so there wasn’t anyone doing this sort of thing at that time.”
