Adairsville, Ga.—FCNews is in attendance as all but four NFA members converge on Barnsley Gardens, here, to discuss new products and marketing strategies for 2021 at the NFA spring meeting.
Suppliers like Shaw Industries, Mohawk Flooring, Happy Floors and Tarkett were in attendance as were major retailers like A.J. Rose Carpets & Flooring and Bob’s Carpet & Flooring.
Citing pent-up demand from 2020’s stay-at-home lifestyle, all members that spoke with FCNews reported being up 20% or more in sales from the first quarter of 2019. A key indication that 2021 is going to continue to be a record breaking year for the industry, despite some ongoing challenges.
