One Stop Shopping for Bedding in High Point
After a very successful launch of The Bedding Center at the Spring 2007 High Point Market, Merchandise Mart Properties Inc. (MMPI) has expanded and relocated the area to the first floor of Plaza Suites. The new Bedding Center, which is completely sold out for the upcoming market, will be ready to welcome buyers for the Fall High Point Market, October 1-7.
Based on the overwhelming success last market, The Bedding Center has nearly doubled in size, growing from 15,000 to 25,000 square feet. Feedback from participants from last market is proof of the incredible success of the inaugural launch of The Bedding Center.
“We think a strong foundation has been laid at this Market [Spring 2007 High Point Market] from which the mattress industry can look to build upon in reestablishing High Point as a bedding destination.”
Gerry Borreggine, President/CEO, Therapedic Sleep Products
“The Bedding Center proved to be a great concept. Customers enjoyed the ease of shopping bedding by having it in one location. We were able to open some new accounts and look forward to coming back in October.”
Ashley Groce, Marketing Manager, Corsicana
Corsicana added an additional 200 square feet to their space for the October Market.
“The traffic count in our space and the significance of the buyers that we met with at the inaugural event convinced us to expand our space for the October market.”
