The Home Furnishings Association (HFA) has announced the nominees for its 2018 Retailer of the Year awards, which honor outstanding retailers who represent exceptional examples of philanthropy, technology, customer experience, mentoring, sustainability and store design/merchandising.
Candidates are considered in two categories — sales volume under $10 million and sales volume $10 million or above. A selection committee, comprised of HFA members, manufacturers, service providers/suppliers, independent sales reps, and industry officials and media, will review the nominations. Winners will be announced during a press conference Sunday, July 29, 2018, at 11:00am in HFA’s Retailer Resource Center – B1050 during the Summer Las Vegas Market.
The HFA will also recognize Emerging Star and Trailblazer honorees, awards which acknowledge retailers who’ve successfully jumped into the industry with both feet and those who’ve made a career out of forging new roads, respectively. All awards will be presented during the Retailer of the Year Celebration on September 15 at the HFA’s Insights 2018 Conference in Minneapolis.
The Home Furnishings Association’s Retailer of the Year awards are made possible by generous sponsorships from Coaster Home Furnishings, Emerald Home Furnishings and Furniture of America.
