Our Story

Built on Faith, Family, and Service

Matt's Appliances was founded in 2011 by Matt and his wife, Amber, with humble beginnings in their garage. What started as a small, family-run operation has grown into a multi-location business built on faith, hard work, integrity, and a commitment to serving people well.

Humble Beginnings

More Than Selling Appliances

From the beginning, Matt and Amber have believed that the business is about more than just selling appliances. Their mission has always been rooted in Christian values: treating customers with honesty, serving the community with humility, and creating an environment where people can grow both personally and professionally.

In 2014, Matt and Amber took the next major step by renting a 600-square-foot facility at 2600 Common Street in Lake Charles, Louisiana. That small space became the foundation for the company's growth and helped establish Matt's Appliances as a trusted name in Southwest Louisiana.
