HIGH POINT — Seventeen furniture manufacturers and importers are signed on as sponsoring exhibitors for the spring Premarket held Sept. 11-12.
Premarket is designed to provide furniture retailers with a preview of upcoming High Point Market introductions. These extended appointments allow attending retailers to experience a more in-depth showroom visit and free up their schedule when they return to High Point during market to be able to visit other vendors.
The event is organized by a committee of sponsoring showrooms, which contracts with the High Point Market Authority to provide strategic direction, staffing and logistical support.
Each sponsoring exhibitor commits to providing a near-market-ready amount of product. The group also pools resources to bring selected retailers for a preview of goods and the opportunity for final tweaking of product details.
