Furniture Today,
Sees traffic flow shifting

HIGH POINT — Canadian contemporary upholstery specialist G. Romano will be in a new space at the fall market here, on the seventh floor of the International Home Furnishings Center’s Design Center wing, space D-708.

Last market, the company showed in the Market on Green building.


“Over the last few markets, we have seen a definite shift of the market’s flow away from the outside showrooms and back to the IHFC building,” said Rick Lovegrove, Romano’s head of design and sales director. “As buyers attend more markets than ever, the actual amount of time they spend at market is often reduced and is often focused on the key, must-see buildings.

Lovegrove said the company will launch several collections and marketing tools for retailers at the market, which runs Oct. 1-7.
