High Point Firmly Anchored in Furniture Market Debate
The debate over whether Dallas will supplant High Point as the furniture market hub centers on Dallas advantages like air access and nightlife versus High Point’s strength in showroom breadth. Burris Manufacturing’s Wayne Burris argues High Point will remain dominant, noting full lines and major case goods makers there, while Dallas grows with multiple showrooms and strong lodging, transport, and entertainment. Authorities caution factors beyond housing and liquor influence market location, and observers credit High Point with enduring showroom depth despite Dallas expansion.
