I would imagine they will keep the existing staff and gradually weed out those they don't think should be selling furniture.

But, this is just my opinion and you know what someone's opinion is worth
is it not possible that city furniture has there own staff who might be willing to relocate to work in the villages stores? such transfers would provide sales associates already trained in the city furniture way and familiar with all of their sales/return/repair policies and procedures. there is comfort in
corporate loyalty.
