Capitol City Mattress was founded in 1930 by E. B. Jones as an in-home mattress renovation service. He was joined by J. D. Southerland a few months later and they bought a building on the corner of 9th and Main Street. In 1947, the two dissolved their partnership. Jones stayed with Capitol City while Southerland eventually bought Nashville Bedding Company, currently known as Southerland Bedding Co.

Jones passed away in 1975 and Horace Bass purchased the company ten years later. The name FLUFFO was added as their primary brand name with Snuggler and Snooozzzer following later. The building was also enlarged several times over the years. Bass purchased the Best ‘n Bedding Company in Knoxville, TN in 1997, adding the America’s Best line of bedding to their brands.

With a large portion of the original plant destroyed by a tornado in April of 1998, the building was rebuilt. In addition, a new building was constructed on Woodland Street behind the original to house the manufacturing from the now closed Knoxville Plant. As of May 2009, all manufacturing and sales have been relocated to the new building.

Capitol City Mattress is still proudly owned and operated by Horace Bass and his family.
