Furniture Industry Recovery.

I’m sure all High Point Market blog posts, like trade press articles about the market are all the same. Business is great, traffic is up, the sun is shining and according to some suppliers their sales now exceed Exxon’s. In reality the “market business” is in trouble and the industry continues to find a recovery elusive and inconsistent. Retailers and designers are finding it difficult to justify attending High Point twice a year, and if they are located west of the Rockies they have the Las Vegas market to consider. Our expectation is that it will be a quiet market, but we hope that commitments and orders continue the upward trend we have seen so far this year. Not spectacular by any means, but a big improvement over 2009
