Our Story
Lighting is the finishing touch that turns a space from ordinary into extraordinary. Since 1973, Premier Lighting has helped homeowners, designers, and architects across Arizona — and now around the country — find the piece that makes a room.
Family-Owned Since 1973
Premier Lighting was founded in Tucson, Arizona, on a simple belief: exceptional lighting should be accessible to anyone who cares about the details. Over 50 years, what began as a single Tucson showroom has grown into one of the Southwest's most trusted lighting retailers, with showrooms in Tucson (operating as Northside Lighting) and Scottsdale, a distribution center in Phoenix, and customers shopping with us online from Arizona to across the U.S.
Still family-owned, Premier Lighting has stayed close to its roots while growing to serve the entire Phoenix metro and Tucson area, plus homeowners and design professionals nationwide through ShopPremier.com.
Our showrooms are more than retail floors — they're curated spaces where you can see lighting the way it's meant to be experienced: illuminated, in context, at true scale. Our team is on hand to guide every selection, from a single statement pendant to a full-home lighting plan.
A Curated Selection, Not a Catalog
We don't carry everything — we carry the right things. Every chandelier, pendant, sconce, ceiling fan, and outdoor fixture in our collection is chosen for its craftsmanship, design integrity, and ability to anchor a space. We partner with leading lighting manufacturers and emerging designers who share our commitment to quality, so you can shop with confidence knowing every piece has been vetted by our team — not just listed.
Whether you're drawn to clean modern lines, warm organic forms, or timeless classical silhouettes, our collection spans styles while holding to one consistent standard: excellence.
Trusted by Homeowners, Designers, and Builders Alike
For 50 years, Premier Lighting has been a go-to resource for the design community. Our Tier Premier Designer Program gives interior designers, architects, and trade professionals exclusive access to trade pricing, project support, and dedicated account management.
That same expertise extends to the multifamily and builder community — for decades, Premier Lighting has supplied lighting packages for apartment communities and residential developments across the Southwest. If you're a homeowner or designer, ShopPremier.com and our showrooms are built for you; if you're a builder, developer, or multifamily property team, reach out to our team directly to talk about project pricing and support.
