Gallery Furniture's Market Crew has been busy in fabulous Las Vegas at the World Furniture Market.

While the market crew of Mattress Mack, Chris "Chris-E" Etheredge, David the Salesperson, Matt "Baseball" Pitcher, Martha "Kolo" Kologinzack, Mary D, Kristina "KW" Whitcomb, Kelly "the KT" Thompson, Gil Velasquez, and Theodore "Ted" Goldman are hard at work, the crew is keeping in mind that the reason for Gallery Furniture's aggressive approach to market is to ensure that all savings are passed on to the family of customers.
Days and nights are spent negotiating, scouting, going to educational and design seminars, and keeping our eye on the ball to ensure that a wide array of products across all price points are ready for Houstonians to enjoy the same day.
So, how does the Gallery Furniture team work as a unit to bring you great quality at low prices? This is the scene from Monday Night, the time is 6:30 p.m. and the Gallery Furniture Las Vegas Market Team is at Crown Mark Furniture.
At the table: Frances "Grandma" Brown of Crown Mark Furnishings tells Gallery Furniture's Ted Goldman not to scuff the showroom furniture when Gallery Furniture holds their meeting. Thanks to Crown Mark for holding our furniture and allowing Gallery Furniture to have their meetings on site.
The stage is set as Kelly Thompson, Aggie Intern, along with Kristina Whitcomb (another Fightin' Texas Aggie Intern) go over the Bramble Furnishings Catalog - they will make their pitch to Mattress Mack as to why Gallery Furniture should carry Bramble. Their idea? It has that Anthropologie and Z-Gallerie look but with better quality and better pricing... we'll see how it goes. In the background, Aggie Gil sits ready for his eco-friendly furniture pitch, UT Salesperson David has some notes, and Mary D has been looking at lamps and readies her pitch. In the background, see Mattress Mack himself walking in.
Next up... all work, very little play... despite what folks may think, Vegas Market is ALL business. Fourteen hour work days and reports due. Since Vegas will always be here, no one sweats it - the Gallery Furniture Las Vegas Market Team is here for our dedicated customers.
