Abbott joins forces with Harper Group for U.S. sales expansion in the Midwest, Southeast

Abbott, a trusted name in wholesale home décor and giftware for over 75 years, announced a new partnership with Harper Group, one of the leading sales rep agencies in the U.S. This partnership will focus on the Midwest and Southeast territories, strengthening Abbott’s presence and service to independent retailers in these key markets.

As part of this collaboration, Abbott is now proudly featured in the Harper Group showroom at AmericasMart Atlanta, located in Building 2, Floor 17, Suite 1710. The space offers buyers a chance to experience Abbott’s thoughtfully curated, trend-driven collections up close.

“We’re thrilled to be working with Harper Group in these important U.S. regions,” said Fred Abbott, director of business development at Abbott. “Their reputation for excellence in retail partnerships aligns perfectly with our own values of trust, design, and customer-first service.”

Abbott’s debut in the Harper Group showroom comes at a time of exciting momentum. Known for its exclusive product development and customer-focused approach, Abbott launches over 2,500 new products each year across home décor, seasonal, kitchen, entertaining, and giftware categories. Retailers can expect beautifully designed assortments that spark inspiration, drive sell-through, and keep shelves fresh year-round.

“We’re excited to welcome Abbott to our showroom and sales organization,” said Scott Harper, president and CEO of Harper Group. “Abbott is a standout brand with a strong following, and their commitment to quality and thoughtful design aligns closely with how we support and partner with our retailers. We look forward to building a long-term, successful relationship across the Midwest and Southeast.”

This move reflects Abbott’s ongoing commitment to supporting specialty retailers across the U.S. with deeper sales support, expanded visibility, and meaningful relationships.
