Doug's News September 2022
Dear Friends:
If it is Labor Day weekend that must mean it is almost submission time for our 37th annual Design Competition. As we announced on Tuesday, the entry deadline has been extended! It is now Tuesday, September 13. If you haven't heard the news - this year is an increased First Place Award, now $3000, tripled from the previous $1000. And, as always, an unlimited number of First Place Awards, in the past ranging from one to four. The competition seeks innovative furniture components, accessories, and hardware. Plus, it is now all online and the entry process is very much streamlined. You can get more info here. Look forward to your entry!
We are just back from a very successful exhibit at the International Woodworking Fair (IWF) last week in Atlanta. Very pleased to say the show was swamped and our booth was always full with visitors who had terrific comments about our new products. The positive turnout offers a positive business sign for 2023.
We are always working on new products and summer 2022 has been no exception. Shortly we will be revealing new PCS units, table legs, and some new finishes for drawer pulls. Stay tuned …
September 15 to October 15 is Hispanic Heritage Month and we will be featuring five exceptional Hispanic architects/designers on our social media channels and on our blog. Keep an eye out!
Our best to you and yours for a relaxing Labor day weekend. We all deserve it!
Cordially,
Douglas A.J. Mockett
President
