Leggett & Platt Consumer
Products Group today
announced the winner of its High
Point Market “Energized
Performance” Weekend Getaway.
Jon Garber, owner of Valley
Furniture and Mattress in
Whitehall, Pennsylvania, will
enjoy a weekend getaway with his
wife, compliments of Leggett &
Platt Consumer Products Group.
“I’ve been a loyal Leggett &
Platt customer for years,” said
Garber. “I was excited when my
longtime Leggett & Platt sales
representative, Steve Bernstein,
called me with the news that I’d
won. I’ve never won anything
before, and I’m looking forward
to taking the vacation.”
“It’s a pleasant surprise to
draw Jon’s name from the
entries,” said Rob Woods,
president of Leggett & Platt’s
Consumer Products Group, the
company’s retail arm in the
bedding industry. “He has been a
loyal customer for many years,
and we are delighted to be able
to reward a longtime customer
like Jon.”
As one of Pennsylvania’s leading
bedding retailers, Valley
Furniture and Mattress offers a
full line of Leggett & Platt
sleep products and accessories.
Last year, Valley Furniture and
Mattress was one of the first
stores to employ the Leggett &
Platt® Retail Solution™ (LPRS),
a turn-key marketing and
merchandising program that helps
retailers improve sales
performance.
“Leggett & Platt Retail Solution
has helped renew our business
tremendously over the past
year,” said Garber. “We’ve been
in the furniture and bedding
industry for years, but just
recently opened Valley Furniture
and Mattress, and we’ve had
phenomenal results with LPRS.
The program has helped us
increase our sales by promoting
sleep accessories like sheets,
pillows and mattress protectors
to bedding consumers.”
Garber entered to win the
getaway while visiting Leggett &
Platt Consumer Products Group’s
showroom at the High Point
Market.
“Overall, the Spring High Point
Market was a huge success for
us,” said Woods. “It was great
to witness the renewed energy at
the Market and see the buzz
throughout our showroom as we
met with many of our customers
throughout the week.”
As a leader in the sleep
industry, Leggett & Platt
Consumer Products Group focused
its Spring High Point Market
message on bringing energy and
optimism back to the retail
sales floor. The drawing for a
weekend getaway to “re-energize”
was just one component of the
rejuvenating showroom
experience. Visitors to the
showroom also enjoyed sensory
experiences designed to refresh
their spirit and learned new
ideas to help them grow their
business in the new economy. The
company plans to continue its
Energized Performance concept
throughout 2010 to inspire more
retailers to improve their
retail performance.
