Join Our Team
We're a family-owned Scandinavian furniture showroom in Berkeley, and we're growing.
Why Viking Trader
Viking Trader has been Berkeley's home for fine Scandinavian and European furniture since 1989. We're an authorized dealer for Stressless, Fjords, American Leather, Luonto, Innovation Living, Copeland, and more, brands people plan trips to our showroom to see in person.
We're a small, family-run team. You'll get to know your regulars, work alongside people who genuinely care about good design, and help customers furnish homes they'll love for years, not just close a sale.
