February Carolinas Show Offers Latest Advances
The 2000 Carolinas Woodworking & Supply Show, the first woodworking show of a new decade, delivers Jerry Epperson, managing director of Mann, Armistead & Epperson Ltd., Richmond, VA, who presents The Changing Furniture Landscape on Friday, February 18 at 12:30 p.m. in the Greensboro Coliseum Complex Town Meeting Hall. He’ll cover the growing e-commerce market, America’s shifting demographic picture, the future of the workplace and the increasing prominence of women as business leaders.
The two-day show will be held from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Friday, February 18 and 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, February 19.
Though he’s known for his focus on furniture, Epperson’s insights are equally relevant to other types of woodworkers. "The migration of workers to the home will mean a dramatic increase in construction and renovation," says Keith Eidson, Trade Shows Inc. principal. "This booming entrepreneurial spirit surely will inspire a new wave of craftsmen (both men and women) to set up shop in our industry. It’s important that we all pay attention to the big picture."
Seven free educational seminars are scheduled covering integrated solid modeling, CNC router productivity, pumps and wood finishing applications, vacuum pressing and clamping equipment, water-based adhesives, custom cabinet connectors and surviving in a "rapid response" workplace. Some 6,000 participants and 500 exhibiting companies are expected.
As part of this year’s event, the new WHO Award, a natural outgrowth following the disastrous results of Hurricane Floyd, encourages and rewards a company within the industry that has contributed to relief efforts. A $1,000 check will be sent to the Floyd relief organization of the winning recipient’s choice on behalf of Trade Shows Inc., owners and sponsors of the show.
A Carolina BBQ reception follows Epperson’s speech at 1:30 p.m.
