Home furnishings marketing services vendor Wright of Thomasville's Showroom Solutions division has begun in-house manufacturing of top-of-bed branding items.

Those include shams, foot protectors and embroidered labels.

Twelve additional employees have been hired to support manufacturing is taking place at Wright's Thomasville complex. For the past 10 years, Wright has used a local manufacturer for these products. Wright€™s new division will bring in-house much of the manufacturing for these products.

"The bedding industry has become one of the most dynamic segments in the home furnishing industry and we felt that using our own people and equipment to handle these assignments would assure our customers the continued quality, service and value they have come to expect from Wright for the past 50 years," said Wright President and CEO Greg Wright. "Because of changes in the industry, one of the most compelling challenges we wanted to address in the supply chain was the shorter turns many of our clients require today. We can better meet those challenges by having a captive unit only dedicated to the needs of our clients."
