GERMANTOWN, Tenn. — Mega Group USA will show at the High Point Market for the first time this October, leasing a 750-square-foot showroom in Plaza Suites, space 1-545.

The buying group for furniture, mattress, appliance and electronics retailers has attended markets for years, but only this year has begun hosting retailers in its own showrooms.

"We made a decision early in 2010 to have a stronger presence at the furniture markets," said Jerry Honea, chief operating officer of Mega Group USA. "Vegas market was a huge success for us signing up many new dealers and being able to showcase our product and business offerings to our members. High Point is a great venue to further this, and we are excited about being there in October."

The group will showcase its Paula Deen Home by Serta Mattress Collection and the Dreamhaven Mattress Collection, both exclusive to group members. Vendor partner GE Money will be featured for Mega-sponsored consumer finance programs to help drive business in the fourth quarter and next year.

Mega Group USA has about 1,500 retail members with 2,500 storefronts throughout the United States.
