HOM Furniture Names 2018 Vendor and Representative of the Year Award Winners

Minnesota-based retailer HOM Furniture has announced the recipients of the 2018 Vendor of the Year and 2018 Manufacturer’s Representative of the Year awards

Presented by Kyle Johansen, executive director of merchandising for HOM Furniture, at the Depot in Minneapolis, Minn., the awards recognize the company’s key partners based on product category growth and service.

Peter Robinson and Christopher Thorpe, owners of GTR Leather, received the 2018 Vendor of the Year award. Sold for the last two years under HOM’s private label, Thomas Cole, GTR has shown phenomenal growth and is now recognized as one of HOM Furniture’s most important sources of leather upholstery.

“We are honored to award GTR Leather with our Vendor of the year for 2018. The team at GTR has an inspirational passion for their products which comes through by the beautifully designed upholstery they are producing,” said Johansen. “Their attention to detail with every nail, stitch, and cover application allows HOM to provide the finest leather upholstery in the marketplace at a superior value than our competition."

Scott Rutzick was awarded the 2018 Manufacturer’s Representative of the Year. With 20 years experience with HOM Furniture and a proven history of overall professionalism and timeliness of service, Rutzick has demonstrated a long time commitment to the success of HOM Furniture while working as a representative for Oriental Weavers, the company’s largest area rug vendor line.

“Mr. Rutzick is one of the finest reps the industry has to offer,” Johansen remarked. “His attention to detail, strong work ethic, dedication to working in our showrooms, and prompt follow up to our buying and sales teams have earned him this prestigious award."
