Keep a reminder of New England retail history close with this Bernie's tough phone case. Founded by Bernard Rosenberg in 1947, the family business grew from local television and radio sales into a regional retailer of appliances, audio, video, and bedding. Its first showroom opened in Bloomfield in 1953, and Milton Rosenberg revived the Bernie's name in 1991. For former shoppers and collectors, this design honors a Connecticut-rooted story that reached across three New England states.
Bernie's began in 1947, when Connecticut gas station owner Bernard Rosenberg started selling televisions and radios to local customers. As demand grew, he opened Bernie's TV and Appliance, the company’s first showroom, in Bloomfield, Connecticut, in 1953. With his son Milton and other family members, he built the business into a New England family-owned retailer of audio, video, televisions, appliances, and bedding. In 1985, the Rosenberg family sold its five stores to Newmark & Lewis. Milton left that company in 1990 and bought back the Bernie's name for $1 after Newmark & Lewis went bankrupt and closed in 1991. He rebuilt the chain from one store to ten by 1999. The company moved its headquarters and warehouse to Enfield in 2004 and had 15 stores by the end of 2009, across Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. After mounting losses, Bernie's filed for bankruptcy on January 14, 2010. Liquidation sales concluded and the remaining stores closed on February 28, 2010.
