“As we continue to navigate through these challenging times, the safety of our employees, retailers and consumers remains a top priority for us,” said Stuart Carlitz, president and chief executive officer of Eclipse International. “We did not make this decision lightly. The market offers us the ability to see our partners and retailers, as well as showcase new products and our latest innovations. While we regret the missed opportunity, we are putting the safety of our employees and partners first.”
While the Eclipse team will not be attending the market, the company is prepared to offer showroom tours coupled with FaceTime or video calls. The company has coordinated with the management at the World Market Center to allow guided access to the showroom for retailers that want to shop the line. The company is accepting showroom appointments to facilitate the tours. Interested parties should contact Matt Connolly via e-mail at mbcthebedman@aol.com.
New to the company’s line up is a new 12-model boxed bed collection introduced this summer designed for retailers looking to build their online business. The collection features six all-foam options and six hybrid models to meet the growing demand in that category. The foam models are priced to retail beginning at $399, and the hybrid models can retail from $499 to $999. Beds feature pocketed coil spring systems, foam, latex and gel memory foam.
