t the recent buying group
show in Nashville, M EGA
Group introduced more than
a dozen new furniture and bedding
vendors to its members. Each new
vendor exhibited at the two-day Fall
Show, showcasing their offerings and
pricing to the more than 350 in attendance.
Here's a brief recap of a few of these new partners.
• Wesley Allen
MEGA is excited to partner with Wesley Allen, the largest domestic
manufacturer of accent metal furniture including beds and bar-
stools. The designer iron furniture adds an eclectic element to
retailers' showrooms, and with more than 30 finishes and extensive
leather and fabric selections, customers can make it their own.
• Simply Amish
The handcrafted, hand-finished pieces produced by Simply Amish
are beautiful works of art. From dining tables to bedroom suites,
these custom-built pieces are made from slow-growth hardwoods
and come in a variety of colors and finishes. The live edge pieces
created by these artisans are all unique and rugged, showcasing
the beauty and richness of the tree from which it was made.
• Steve Silver Co.
Steve Silver Co. is the low-cost leader in casual dining and
occasional furniture and excels in creating high quality pieces at
affordable price points. Members are excited to add this line to
their floors because of the variety of styles available. They've also
added seating, motion, and a wide mix of leather and fabric
upholstery to their line-up.
• Restonic
The Restonic name is not new to anyone, but until this fall, the
buying group has not had a formal program in place for its
retailers. There is a lot of excitement from members who are
eager to place lines like the ComfortCare
®
Hybrid Signature on
their floors.
• Dr. Greene's Ideal Mattress
Anyone who sells bedding today recognizes the disruption
caused by the bed-in-a-box players, but many traditional brick-
and-mortar retailers have been cautious of offering a box option.
Today, MEGA retailers who want to reach the mostly-millennial
shopper can with the Dr. Greene's Ideal Mattress (exclusive for
MEGA members). Formulated by orthopedic surgeon, Craig C.
Greene, M.D., his college friend and retail mattress chain owner
Ty Hingle, and Ty's business partner, Lee Burns, this mattress
doesn't sacrifice great sleep for convenience and affordability.
While others are still sold predominately online, Dr. Greene's
Ideal Mattress allows retailers to sell online and in-store,
allowing customers to choose the experience they are most
comfortable with.
MEGA Group has an extensive offering for furniture and mattress
retailers featuring programs with more than 95 manufacturers.
