LAS VEGAS — Unfinished Furniture Assn. members will show as a group for the first time at the Las Vegas Market Feb. 1-5 in a dedicated area on the fifth floor of Building C, officials announced.

"Some members of this association have shown at previous markets and grouping them together in one well-situated destination will be an added convenience for our attendees interested in this growing category," said Philip McKay, senior vice president of the World Market Center here.

UFA is an international trade association of retailers, manufacturers and sales organizations in the United Sates, Canada and the Caribbean. Its trademark certification program, Real Wood Furniture Finished Your Way, provides brand support to members who provide consumers with wood furniture along with opportunities for custom finishing.

"UFA is pleased to provide this opportunity for its member manufacturers to interact with member and non-member retailers at the Las Vegas Market" said the association's president, Bob Lamar.

UFA also announced that it will hold its 20th annual trade show in Cincinnati again next year, July 11-13. It is open to all interested retailers.
