TORONTO — With more than 1,000 dealers and vendors in attendance, TIMBER MART hosted its ninth annual national buying show from February 15-16 at the Toronto Congress Centre. The show served as a launching pad for member-exclusive pool buys, educational sessions on new TIMBER MART programs and the Timberkids’ Scholarship Fund program.
Some 200 vendor booths filled the 80,000-square-foot show floor, where attractions included Orgill’s new plumbing and electrical assortments. TIMBER MART’s Store on the Floor featured merchandised displays of more than 2,000 SKUs of building materials and hardlines products. “From the member-exclusive buying opportunities, to the educational sessions on new programs and services we’re launching,” CEO and President Bernie Owens said, “this show will return more value to our members than ever.”
