HIGH POINT, N.C. -- Accents importer Coast to Coast Imports says it is moving to a larger showroom for the fall High Point Market in response to the company's growth over the past three years.

The 16,000-sq.-ft. exhibit space in the International Home Furnishings Center - C-1103, which was formerly occupied by Rowe - is about 4,000 square feet larger than the company's previous space.

The added room will allow the company to display all of its 450 SKUs and showcase display options to its retail customers, according to Andy Stein, CEO.

"Our tremendous growth over last three years precipitated a new, larger showroom," Stein said. "It'll allow us to show our whole line."

At the October market, the company will show about 130 pieces with attention focused on updating painted finishes to coordinate with upholstered furniture. The company also plans to increase its transitional and contemporary offerings.

Coast to Coast will open its showroom for this week's Premarket, which runs Thursday and Friday.

In other news for the company, Stein said that its new website went live in July and dealer response has been positive.
