Furniture World News Desk on 11/10/2022


Las Vegas Market’s plan to further strengthen its furniture and home décor resources and improve the buying experience makes major strides in Winter 2023 with the first phase of a strategic reorganization of Building A and the addition of more top international bedding and mattress brands. The 125,000 sqft of updates include some 41 new, relocated and expanded showrooms by leaders like Serta-Simmons, Theodore Alexander and more for the January 29 – February 2, 2023, buying event.

“We are actively reimagining the home furnishings resources at World Market Center Las Vegas to offer an even better experience for the west coast design and retail community,” said Scott Eckman, International Market Centers (IMC) executive vice president, chief revenue officer. “Strategic relocations across the showroom floors are creating optimized spaces for some of the most influential brands in the industry.”

The plan to refresh the Las Vegas Market furniture and home décor buying experience kicks off with major updates to the brand presentations. A strategic reorganization in Building A paves the way for more design-driven furnishings brands to create new west coast flagship showrooms for suppliers including Theodore Alexander. Las Vegas Market continues to strengthen its mattress and bedding offerings with another major international resource– Serta-Simmons – joining the collection in two permanent showrooms.
