\nAs part of the ongoing efforts to improve the High Point Market experience for all concerned, the High Point Market Authority is creating a new directory for distribution at Market this Fall.
\n
\n\t\t
\nThe purpose of the new Market Directory is to help first-time visitors, smaller independent retailers (defined as those with under $5 million in annual sales) and interior designers more easily navigate the Market. To that end, along with company name, showroom location and category of product, the new directory will provide a number of simple, color-coded designations from which exhibitors can choose. These designations will indicate whether an exhibitor is small-retailer friendly and\/or designer friendly, whether the exhibitor is a container-only supplier, has a US warehouse and\/or whether the exhibitor has minimum-order requirements.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We are committed to continuously improving the Market experience for all of our constituents and with 12 million square feet of showroom space, we know that the sheer size of Market can be daunting for many attendees,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d relates Brian Casey, president of the High Point Market Authority. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Our goal for this new directory is to help first-time visitors, small independents and interior designers quickly identify the showrooms where they will be most welcome. We also believe it will enable the exhibitors who seek to do business with these buyers to more easily reach out to them. This new Market Directory\u00e2\u20ac\u201dan insider\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s guide to High Point Market if you will\u00e2\u20ac\u201dis being created to help all of our stakeholders make the most efficient use of their time here.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
According to Casey, the new directory will include no advertising and will be small and light-weight enough to carry in a breast-pocket, purse or briefcase. Exhibitors will be listed both alphabetically and by product category.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153The operating words here are \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcuser-friendly,\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 \u00e2\u20ac\u009d Casey says. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153For that reason, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s imperative that we include all exhibitors in this valuable resource. Since Market is right around the bend, we are urging all companies to answer the call and respond quickly to our requests for information. There is no charge for participating and we know it will benefit each company to do so.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
