Toronto fair set for Aug. 9-10

Michael J. Knell -- Furniture Today, March 16, 2009

MISSISSAUGA, Ontario — The 2009 edition of the Toronto Summer Furniture Show will be held Aug. 9 to 10, the Canadian Home Furnishings Alliance has announced.

For the first time, the show will be followed by the group's annual All Industry Golf Tournament, to be held Aug. 11 at the Glen Eagle Golf Club in nearby Bolton, Ontario.

“By holding our always popular golf tournament in conjunction with the summer show, we are creating an outstanding networking opportunity for both suppliers and retailers,” said Laine Reynolds, CHFA chairman.

As in previous years, the Toronto Summer Furniture Show will overlap the summer edition of the Canadian Gift & Tableware Assn.'s trade event, which will be held at the International Centre and the Toronto Congress Centre Aug. 9-13.

The TSFS is organized by a committee chaired by John Power, vice president of sales for Serta Toronto.

Mike James, vice president of Kingsdown Canada and chairman of the golf tournament, said the tournament can host as many as 144 golfers. Dinner-only tickets also will be available.

The CHFA also will host its annual general meeting at Glen Eagle on Aug. 11 at 10 a.m., before the golf tournament.

For more information, contact CHFA President Murray Vaughan at (905) 655-6761 or by e-mail at murray@chfaweb.ca.
