New January 2025 intros in all categories

Napa Home & Garden celebrates 25 years of elevating every living space.

Atlanta – This January, Napa marks their 25th anniversary with a year-long celebration that highlights their noteworthy milestones and honors their most loyal and long-standing customers. The company will kick-off the celebration with over 475 new introductions at January markets, including a new collaboration with lifestyle designer Barclay Butera. A special celebration in Atlanta this January will include a showroom party and a live Q&A session with Founder and Chairman, KC Cunningham.

Founded in Napa, California, by KC and Jerry Cunningham, Napa Home & Garden was built on KC’s love of gardening and her affinity for elegant living. In 2000, they first opened showrooms in Atlanta, Dallas, New York and High Point markets with an emphasis on garden. In 2004, they introduced Fibreclay planters, solidifying Napa’s position in the outdoor space.

Driven by KC’s passion for home decor, they expanded their offerings to Italian ceramic masterworks, woven goods in Burma rattan and soon after, were the first wholesaler to introduce real preserved boxwoods at market. In 2009, they made their way into the lighting & pendant category, and it was in 2015 that they added their signature floral drop-ins. Napa was the first to introduce hand-crafted orchids and ferns, many of which continue to be top sellers at every market. Italian tableware and garden pots by Wakefield Handmade made their debut in 2014, and Napa Home & Garden was a formidable home décor brand. 

“I was never driven by industry norms”, states KC Cunningham, adding “Jerry would always encourage me to buy what spoke to me, regardless of trends. This was the key to our growth in those initial years.” The Cunninghams traveled the world to bring an elevated aesthetic at an affordable price point to their customers. They credit the success of their ever-expanding product line to their strong partnerships with many talented vendors, retailers and designers, whom they have always considered good friends.

Throughout 2025, Napa will pay homage to some of the company’s long-time customers with testimonials and recollections specific to Napa via social media and on their website.

“Napa Home and Garden has become a major resource for us,” states Dan Bellman and Randy Korando of Boxwoods Gardens and Gifts in Atlanta, a longtime Napa customer. “Since their opening in 2000, Napa’s unique designs and creatively curated product line, paired with excellent pricing, has proven to be a win-win combination for Boxwoods,” adding, “we look forward to working with them for many years to come.”  

“Building on Napa’s rich history and adapting to the evolving needs of our savvy customer base has been such a rewarding venture,” says Napa President Michelle Gee. “There is so much more in the pipeline to round-out our ever-growing portfolio, so we look forward to all that lies ahead!”

This special anniversary for Napa coincides with a robust collection of new introductions, including the company’s first-ever tabletop collaboration with the iconic lifestyle designer, Barclay Butera. Also making its debut is Alluna, a new line of sixteen cordless LED Lamps in an array of designer colors with distinctive empire shades in linen and metal, and a round charging station base --- exclusively designed the way only Napa can. The company also is introducing new European flax fiber woven pillows in an array of floral and striped patterns and colors, distinctive mango wood accent furniture pieces and large scale innovative new LED solar lanterns in both modern and traditional silhouettes.

KC Cunningham concludes, “what I’ve learned over the past 25 years is that life has a long runway, and you can achieve more than you might have imagined in your 50s. My life is richer having known and worked with so many talented people across the world, many of whom are still suppliers after 20+ years. Their products are just as relevant today as they were then.”
