HIGH POINT - The High Point Market Authority said that three exhibitors have joined the Premarket roster as sponsors for the fall event, bringing the total to 25.

Premarket takes place about a month before the April and October High Point markets, allowing manufacturers and suppliers a chance to show new product prototypes in advance of the spring and fall shows.

The year's fall event takes place Sept. 13-14. The event has 25 sponsoring exhibitors, and a number of other exhibitors also open their showrooms.

The event also offers networking events between retailers and manufacturing executives.

Lane Home Furnishings and Fine Furniture Design, both first time sponsors, and Wynwood Furniture, a returning sponsor, have joined the roster of supporters.

"The addition of these three industry leaders to the present 22 manufacturing sponsors enhances and further strengthens the breadth of Premarket," said Kevin O'Connor, president and CEO of Universal Furniture and Legacy Classic parent Samson Marketing. "We continually strive to make the event efficient, as well as enjoyable for those attending."
