Sunpan will also be highlighting over 140 new to market pieces designed and sourced globally, with a particular spotlight on its Directions collection from Vietnam. The newly released collection captures the latest design trends with a mixture of velvets, leathers and brushed metals to exude mid-century warmth and flair. The newest introductions are an addition to over 300 stocked pieces sourced across Vietnam, India, Indonesia, and Malaysia.
Regarding the U.S. government’s recently imposed tariffs on Chinese-made goods, “Sunpan has decided not to increase any trade pricing for our customers through 2018,” wrote Sundeep Bagga, president and CEO. Furthermore, warehouse orders placed at Market will receive a 10 percent discount.
