David Perlman of Perlman Rep said “This has been a great market for us. We did a lot of promotions and we were very surprised by the amount of new stores that showed up and placed orders for the first time. I thought the fifth floor did a great job this market. All of the showrooms were busy and everyone was helping each other out. The market had a very friendly and upbeat vibe.” New showroom owner Shana Landa of Landa Sales agrees. “It has been a really good market. I've seen a lot of buyers looking for new product and a lot of new faces coming through the door. Business was good and everyone has been so warm and welcoming on the floor.”
Bernadette Mopera, owner of her self-titled showroom recently relocated to an expanded showroom. “I saw buyers this market that I haven't seen in years. Everyone has been consistently busy on the floor and it has been a great market for me.” Cynthia Mata, Director of Sales for Scrapbook was also very pleased with the market. “The fifth floor was hopping. I have never seen it so busy. January is usually a slower market, so we were very surprised by how busy it has been.”
