Summer Plus Atlanta Equals Rug Market Time

摘要

It's summertime again here in Hot-lanta. That means balmy temperatures, magnolia trees in bloom, and the AmericasMart's International Area Rug Market in full swing, in tandem with the Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market. With the U.S. economy showing signs of improvement and consumer confidence increasing, rug manufacturers and suppliers are optimistic that many retailers will attend with intentions to buy a variety of products, from high-end knotted to opening price-point outdoor synthetics. "Oriental Weavers has high expectations for the upcoming Atlanta market," said Jonathan Witt, svp, Oriental Weavers. "With economic conditions improving over the last several months and recent consumer research indicating that consumers are looking to invest in area rugs as their number one home remodeling project, the future is looking bright."
