Wesley Mancini, Ltd., in partnership with Due Process Stable Trading Co., officially unveiled a selection of their new rug design offerings to members of the home furnishings industry at the bi-annual ITMA Showtime Market in High Point, NC on Tuesday, December 6.
With this most recent partnership, Due Process continues its trend to innovate and expand by becoming the first rug company to be accepted into the International Textile Market Association.
Membership with the ITMA will allow Due Process to bring the company's experience and product offerings to a new range of related industries which have never previously included floor coverings in their design catalogs or sales strategies, and help turn area rugs into an integral part of their overall business.
According to David Grasse, President of Due Process, "This partnership is an incredible opportunity for us and our clients. The rug industry is becoming increasingly driven by fashion."
"With fabrics at the forefront of the latest fashion trends, we are excited to be the first and only rug manufacturer to bridge the gap between these two industries in order to bring such desirable designs and patterns from Wesley Mancini to our rug offerings."
