“Our Las Vegas show business has exploded over the last few markets,” said Ted Teele, CEO, OneCoast. “We have found our retailers and designers are visiting Las Vegas in bigger numbers, and our new showroom will allow us to capture this expanding business.”
OneCoast continues to refine its show strategy based on where its buyers want to shop. Over the last year, OneCoast has expanded its show spaces in Atlanta, Las Vegas, and New York. In addition, the company is seeing large increases in the traffic and sales on its online showroom, www.onecoast.com.
Bob Maricich, CEO, World Market Center, said, “OneCoast is a clear leader among sales and marketing firms in our industry. We are delighted to expand our relationship with such an innovative company.”
“OneCoast operates ‘first-class’ showrooms around the country,” added Keith Sorgeloos, CEO, Home Source International. “We see Las Vegas as being an important market in the future, and we are very excited to be part of this expanded OneCoast showroom.”
