Los Angeles, CA – The L.A. Mart is proud to announce exciting new leasing activity. 19 new showroom leases have been signed at the L.A. Mart since the last two Markets, many of them just in time for the January 2010 show. Additionally, 56 premier gift showrooms have renewed their continued commitment to the L.A. Mart with long-term lease extensions.
“The L.A. Mart’s recent leasing activities are one more reason why LA is the West Coast anchor for the gift and home industries,” said Mark Furlet vice president and general manager, L.A.
