A Phoenix-based mattress industry disruptor is merging with a long-running powerhouse competitor.

Tuft & Needle will combine with Serta Simmons Bedding to form SSB. Tuft and Needle co-founder JT Marino says the new company will affect the industry in a dramatic way.

So is there more to come, as we’re less than two weeks away from Labor Day — typically one of the mattress industry’s most important days?

Steve Goldstein was a host at KJZZ from 1997 to 2022.
