Gus Modern supports local food banks through sales promotion

Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, January 5, 2012

TORONTO — Gus Design Group, a home furnishings manufacturer here, is holding its fourth annual Keep On Giving event, a promotion offering consumers a discount on Gus Modern furniture when they donate to local food banks.

Through Jan. 31, consumers who donate to local food banks through a Gus retailer will receive 15% off the MSRP on Gus Modern upholstery, dining, storage, lighting and accessories. Participating retailers will deliver the collected food and donations to food banks in their communities.

"The Gus Keep On Giving Event has a positive effect in our store and in our community," said John Allison, co-owner of Nest Modern, a retailer in Austin, Texas. "Our customers and staff are helping families in need and we're giving our customers a great deal on Gus Modern furniture."

The Gus Modern furniture collection includes in-stock upholstery, dining, lighting and accent designs, all inspired by mid-century classics. The promotion includes popular Gus pieces like the Atwood sectional, and recent introductions such as the Flip sofabed, the Henry storage ottoman and the Niagara counter table.
