Seminar topic: competing with imports

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, March 3, 2002

GREENSBORO , N.C. — GREENSBORO , N.C. — Lean Manufacturing, a one-day seminar focused on keeping U.S. furniture makers competitive, is set for March 13 here.

Robert Edwards, retired director of the N.C. Manufacturing Extension Partnership at North Carolina State University, and consultant Lee Houston, a former furniture manufacturing executive, will present the program, repeating a seminar held last December.

"The first seminar was a success because it helped American manufacturers discover how they can compete with imports," Edwards said.

The seminar is scheduled for 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at the Hampton Inn near the intersection of N.C. 68 and Interstate 40. For more information, contact Edwards at (919) 787-2633.
