The National Wood Flooring Association will hold discussion forums for wood flooring manufacturers, distributors and contractors from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on April 29 at the San Diego Convention Center. The forums will be held on the final day of the 2011 NWFA Annual Wood Flooring Convention and Expo, which begins April 26. All of the sessions will include discussions of the association's Responsible Procurement Program (RPP) and green issues.
In addition, the manufacturer forum will address updates to and enforcement of the Lacey Act, and ramifications of California's Proposition 65; the distributor forum will include discussions on the new economics of distribution, the future of distributorships and ways distributors can partner with manufacturers; and the dealer/contractor forum will feature speaker Jon Trivers' presentation on rethinking retail in the era of mindful spending.
Each forum is included with the Convention Elite registration package. For more information, call 800/422-4556 (U.S. and Canada) or 636/519-9663 (local and international).
