Our History
Parron Hall’s history has roots back to 1947 when D.R. Parron and Stanley Hall incorporated their fledgling company. Then in 1964, Mara-Long- Marsh merged with Parron Hall. Assuming the Parron Hall name, Mara-Long- Marsh’s owners L.B. Herr III and Robert Long were then partnered with Charles G. Hall, known as Skip to his friends, and son of Parron Hall’s founder Stanley Hall. The merger established the Herrs’ interest in a company that would become an industry leader in the San Diego market.
Following the premature death of Skip Hall in 1972, L.B. Herr III acquired majority interest in Parron Hall. In 1978, Jim Herr joined the company and in 1988 assumed control from his father. Under Jim Herr’s leadership, Parron Hall has grown from $6 million in annual sales to sales between $30 and $40 million in recent years.
In 2005, Parron Hall relocated to 7700 Ronson Road in Kearny Mesa. The central location and the new facility better positioned the dealership to serve the growth of San Diego County and its surrounding communities. A move down the street to 9655 Granite Ridge Drive in 2015 enables Parron Hall to continue to serve our community with an updated showroom that implements state of the art technology and the latest design developments in workplace solutions. In 2018, Parron Hall successfully acquired its local competitor Crawford & I-TEC, and become the newest member of Allsteel’s nationwide network of dealer partners. This new and exciting partnership gives Parron Hall access to Allsteel and HNI’s comprehensive product portfolio and unrivaled planning expertise. And after over 70 years of being in business, Parron Hall continues to grow and thrive and is recognized as one of San Diego’s largest privately owned companies by the San Diego Business Journal. We are one of Allsteel and DIRTT’s premier dealerships in country.
