Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, February 12, 2013

MIAMI — Italian mattress manufacturer Magniflex continues to expand its U.S. operations with the opening of a warehouse in this area.

Located in Doral, Fla., the facility will be the only U.S. location where Magniflex mattresses and sleep accessories are housed and shipped to the company's growing North American dealer network, officials said.

Magniflex plans to begin shipping mattresses from the warehouse in March, a move the company said will help it cut delivery costs and shipping times by 50%.

"As we introduce our innovative product line to more North American retailers, we felt Miami was the logical place to set up shop," said Magniflex U.S. President Marco Magni. "The city's vibrant design culture aligns well with our international sleep products. This location also allows us to offer our mattresses and accessories to specialty furniture stores with international clientele from Latin America cost-effectively in a faster amount of time and provide the excellent service our customers in 80 countries have come to expect."
