New Country Club Furniture at Riverside | Case Study

Elegant Wooden Chairs Customized to the Property’s Needs

The Riverside Country Club in Orem, Utah cut the ribbon on a new facility in 2012 that boasts stunning river and mountain views, the state’s most prestigious 18-hole golf course, an expansive pool complex, new restaurants and meeting areas, and an award-winning pro shop.

The clubhouse boasts 42,000 square feet of private banquet and meeting rooms, several restaurants, lounge areas, exquisite locker rooms, and a fitness facility. Since opening the doors of the new clubhouse, the country club has done an average of $1.5 to 2 million dollars in business every year, which means they have a large volume of customers coming through their doors each week.

The Challenge: Durable Chairs Needed

When the new Riverside clubhouse opened, they purchased low-cost dining chairs and club chairs that they thought would suit their needs. But the low-grade furniture didn’t hold up to the daily use by club members and staff. By 2018, it was clear that they needed to do some remodeling and replace all the furniture in their dining areas with more durable pieces.

“I was searching for high-quality products that were durable. Holsag [by MityLite] had a great price and better options for the type of chairs we needed. They have a great warranty and we have been happy with the chairs.”

The Solution: Country Club Chairs from Holsag by MityLite

Riverside approached Holsag by MityLite about finding new restaurant chairs and country club chairs that would better fit their needs in the dining area. In addition, they needed indoor/outdoor chairs for events and weddings, and banquet chairs for meeting areas.

Fine Dining Seating for Country Club Restaurants

They decided that the Remy Collection of seating was the perfect fit. For the fine dining area, they choose Remy Armchairs and Remy Side Chairs (without arms). These fine dining chairs are built with solid wood frames made of sustainably sourced European Beechwood, featuring upholstery on the seats and backs. Riverside chose an old world oak wood finish that invites warmth and prestige into the decor.

Stackable Event Seating with Aluminum Frames

Banquet stacking chairs with a faux wood finish were chosen for the banquet and meeting areas, since wooden chairs would be too heavy to move around easily for quick room changes. The banquet chairs stack up to eight chairs high. Classic Chiavari Chairs with an antique feel were chosen for weddings and formal events.

Hardwood chairs from Holsag by MityLIte come standard with a 10-year frame warranty, while stacking banquet and event chairs come with up to a 12-year warranty (depending on the style chosen).

How Holsag by MityLite Made It Easy

To make the fabric selection process easier for Riverside, Holsag sent Riverside color swatches to help ensure the chairs would match their facility. Once Riverside decided on a fabric, Holsag by MityLite made a sample chair and sent it to them so the committee in charge of purchasing could look at the chairs in the space and get a real feel for the weight, comfort, and style.
