The Furniture Fair in Guangzhou, China Part 2 by Daphne Oliveros
All the spaces are temporary booths and we see a wide variety of sizes from simple to very complete “store” fronts.
We even saw some familiar names.
After the furniture fair, we take the Guangzhou metro back to our hotel. Like many other Asian cities, there are many high rises and apartments.
Overall, our trip was a success! We visited with vendors and manufacturers that we worked with in the past. And we look forward to bring new models and products to HomeWorld for you soon!
About Me:
I’m the Division Manager at HomeWorld Furniture and have spent more than 27 years in the furniture business. My work has given me the opportunity to travel exotic places such as Thailand, Vietnam, and Coppenhagen. Visiting factories, attending furniture shows, and being exposed to different cultures has been a wonderful learning experience for me. One of the toughest challenges about my job is leaving my family behind in Hawaii. Being a sports enthusiast, I especially miss my son’s baseball games. But it’s important to always stay abreast of what’s happening in the industry so that we can be the first to bring the best furniture choices and values to Hawaii.
Bringing together stories, rooms, life.
