The Burlington Furniture Co., Burlington, Vermont will host the annual Contemporary Design Group Sales Management Meeting, June 19-21, at Stowe Mountain Resort.
CDG is a national association of independent home furnishing stores specializing in modern and contemporary design. Since joining the group a little more than year and a half ago, The Burlington Furniture Company has benefited immensely by being part of this prestigious networking, performance and buying group.
Being part of the CDG has enabled us to leverage the power of the group and allow us to be a leader in this category in Vermont, said Mark Binkhorst, president.
The Burlington Furniture Company was founded in 1984 as the Burlington Futon Company. The focus has changed from a store that specialized in futons and sold some furniture to now specializing in modern and contemporary furniture. The 15,000-square-foot showroom is in an old maple syrup plant on Pine Street in Burlington.
The store is in its fourth year of double digit growth and has been voted the area's Best Furniture Store in both 2010 and in 2011.
