The casual furniture presentation at Summer Las Vegas Market earlier this month, showcased new tenants, major relocations and featured an exclusive new outdoor furnishings promotion.

“The category showcased the largest-ever presentation of resources at Las Vegas Market; tenants saw strong growth in buyer traffic and order-writing with visibility to new audiences for their product lines. It’s gratifying to see the continued growth, and the commitment to Las Vegas throughout the outdoor industry – having over a dozen of our tenants participate in our furniture giveaway promotion speaks volumes. Looking ahead, we continue to explore new ways to add value for all of our customers – our greatest asset.”

Anthony Niceforo, President of D.O.T. Furniture in Ontario, Canada, “came this summer to see the new casual showrooms. We were pleasantly surprised with what we saw,” he said, “not only from the casual showrooms but market overall. Las Vegas Market has improved significantly over the past three years, and we plan to attend regularly moving forward.”
