Case goods and upholstery resource A.R.T. Furniture will host its first-ever open house and product introduction event in its Ontario, Calif. warehouse on Jan. 11.
A.R.T., which doesn’t exhibit at the Las Vegas Market, said the warehouse will be professionally staged with new inventory in upholstery and case goods. A complimentary gourmet food truck will also be on site during the event.
The company said it already has received approximately 30 RSVPs from dealers primarily located in California and the Southwest.
"The inaugural A.R.T. open house scheduled for Jan. 11 was initiated because we simply are too excited about the products we launched at our private Epicenters Austin event and the recent October High Point market,” said Bryan Edwards, senior vice president of sales. “With synergies including a warehouse in Ontario, Calif., we thought we would spend a modest amount of time and effort to set up our warehouse for a one-day open house to welcome our customers, allow them to meet their customer service representatives, see our facility and get an earlier preview of market introductions than they would otherwise.”
