About > Our Philosophy

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting our website. We engineer, design and fabricate custom salon products.  VEECO Manufacturing was started by my father and is an American owned, family operated, Chicago-based company. We are a true brick-and-mortar American manufacturing company. Our family has been involved in custom salon manufacturing and furniture design for beauty salons, barber shops, spas and educational facilities for over 84 years.

Whether you are planning to purchase salon chairs, spa furniture, shampoo furniture, manicure or pedicure furniture or any other beauty salon or school furniture, you will be impressed with our integrated facility that allows for the design and manufacturing to be monitored effectively from beginning to end.

Quality, Experience, & Pride

My key objective as a business owner is to build a lasting relationship with my clients. We are a “hands on” manufacturer who works closely with you to create a unique look that makes the best use of your space for maximum profitability. Because I truly want you to succeed, I and personally become involved with every purchase or design that leaves VEECO’s manufacturing plant. I want you to be successful; nothing short of that is acceptable.

Our long history of beauty salon design and manufacturing gives you the advantage of direct involvement in the design of your salon furniture for your new or existing salon. Whether you choose furniture from our catalog of salon stations, manicure furniture, salon chairs, shampoo furniture and reception furniture, or whether you choose to have us draw a custom salon design, you will be able to follow the progress of your salon from beginning to end.

Family Owned and Operated

Did you know that Veeco has been around since 1927? Originally opened in Chicago and named C&W by Solomon Cohen,my grandfather, the company operated under Solomon Cohen until 1942.  My father, Harvey Cohen, reopened the company as" Veeco" after World War II. Since that time, Veeco has become an industry leader in salon design and salon equipment manufacturing. Veeco has been involved in custom salon design and salon equipment design for beauty salons, barber shops, spas and educational facilities for over 68 years.

Today I follow  the same traditions and values of my Grandfather and Father: honesty, integrity and making the best product possible. My wife, Laurie, has recently joined the business designing this website and doing our  marketing and, to make it even more fun, she works with the oldest of our three daughters, Marcy Cohen Turner, to make sure that cosmetologists in every facet of the industry know about Veeco and its long standing reputation in the industry.

The entire staff of Veeco works as a family to make your business a success. Each new client is treated in the same way...

At VEECO, we engineer each piece of salon furniture individually in our own factory, saving you time and money. Our responsiveness to your vision is what sets us apart from every other salon furniture supplier in the marketplace today. Whether it is one piece or an entire custom salon, VEECO’s designers and craftsmen assure quality and satisfaction. We can take you from concept, to design, to construction all in our Chicago Showroom and Factory.

You’ll find many customer testimonials on our website thanking us for our friendly service, professional design and outstanding craftsmanship. These testimonials speak volumes for my personal integrity and the commitment of the entire staff at VEECO. I hope you’ll stop to read a few of these letters and learn why once you work with VEECO, you’ll become a permanent member of our family, too!
