About Us

After the Planson family sold their family-owned and operated Birmingham relocation business of 20 years, Lori Planson was at a crossroads in her career. Following some deep soul-searching, she realized her passion lay in spending time outdoors with family and friends, grilling, and making memories. Inspired by this love, Lori decided to venture into selling high-end outdoor furniture and accessories, ensuring others could create similar cherished moments.

Partnering with her former friend and colleague, Amanda Nutton, Lori established strong relationships with respected manufacturers to provide top-quality products. These offerings include outdoor furniture, rugs, umbrellas, grills, firepits, fire-tables, outdoor and indoor fireplaces, outdoor kitchen appliances and cabinetry, outdoor heaters, and pool accessories.

In honor of her family, Lori named the company “Planson Outdoor Furnishings,” which has since become known as “Planson Outdoors” or simply “Planson.” Our mission is to offer the finest products to our customers, helping them create the perfect setting for unforgettable memories. As Lori Planson says, “These memories cannot be bought, but they hold the most value of all.”
