The 10th Annual Forty Under 40 Honorees are presented by leading industry trade magazine, Home Furnishings Business (HFB). The program recognizes outstanding individuals from the home furnishings community whose leadership and character are driving the industry forward. These professionals display a commitment to excellence, business growth and outreach into the communities where they are invested and serve.
Bob George, publisher and editor in chief of Home Furnishings Business Magazine said, “This year’s theme for the HFB Forty Under 40, Making the Future Happen, speak directly to what this group of professionals are bringing to the companies and communities where they live. A decade of recognizing these exceptional individuals help us continue to appreciate all of the young talent that continue to rise to the top of our industry.”
These shining stars in the furniture universe were nominated by their peers; often supervisors, directors, assistants or aides. The appreciation given to the Forty Under 40 by those who nominate them are of their drive, work ethic, and potential. They obviously see all the possibilities in the rising stars to position themselves for success both for themselves and their companies.
Selected from an impressive slate of nominations, the Class of 2023 has championed the theme— Making the Future Happen.
In its first decade, the program continues to be a way to bring the home furnishings community closer together, to celebrate a common goal of encouraging fresh new talent and strengthening the industry.
In honor of the inductees of the Class of 2023, a slideshow is available on HFB’s website. In addition to the slideshow, the July/August issue of the magazine is dedicated to the Class of 2023 and their achievements. Honorees will also be recognized and celebrated at a reception held during the High Point Fall Market, Oct. 14-18, 2023.
