Yankee Mattress has placed first in the Valley Advocate’s Best of the Valley editions for the past decade. Nick Noblit, owner of Yankee Mattress, says with locations in Greenfield, Northampton, and Springfield, the Pioneer Valley has been a great home to the business with a local business-minded community. One of the biggest innovations for the company is that it now ships its products throughout the country. Noblit says the business was started 20 years ago by his father and is now a second-generation family business after he took over Yankee Mattress.
