High Point Market Highlights

The High Point Market was home to close to 200 casual furniture and accessory manufacturers and distributors this spring. Casual furnishings played a prominent role at the April 21-26 market, with major players like Agio, Lloyd/Flanders, Telescope Casual, Lane Venture, Brown Jordan, Summer Classics, Palm Springs Rattan & Garden Classics and numerous others in attendance.
