Exhibitors ready for next week's High Point Premarket

Showrooms to open Monday, Tuesday

Heath Combs -- Furniture Today, March 11, 2010

HIGH POINT — Several companies have been added to the list of exhibitors for the High Point Premarket, which takes place this coming Monday and Tuesday, March 15-16.

Premarket offers key retailers a chance to get an early look at product prototypes and offer feedback to manufacturers. It takes place about a month before the High Point Market, which runs April 17-22.

A number of exhibitors are sponsoring Premarket. The sponsors also include three showroom operators - 220 Elm, International Home Furnishings Center and Merchandise Mart Properties - that have tenants participating in Premarket. Sponsors provide funds for buyer meals, lodging and ground transportation.
Vaughan Furniture is among the sponsors, although on some previous lists they were not listed as a sponsor.
