CBG Announces Available Territories For New Retailers November 03, 2021 (0 comments)
Miami, FL—The Continental Buying Group has announced some territories availabile for new retailers. States with retailer openings include Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Kansas, Montana, New Mexico, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. For specific major markets, there is retailer availability in Dallas/Fort Worth, TX; Austin, TX; Chicago, IL; Detroit, MI; Fairfield, CT; Nashville, TN; Reno, NV; Schenectady, NY; and through most of Canada.
Separately, the organization hosted its brand-new fall retreat last month in Tampa, FL. CBG owners Andie Weinman and Joe Murphy said the retreat/show combination was highly successful as retailers and suppliers were able to share top trends, industry news, ideas, and success stories. Seated breakfasts were held each morning of the three-day event, but members were intentionally seated with someone different each time, creating opportunities to open new doors and create industry relationships before each day of buying, said a statement from the organization.
The next CBG show will be January 16-20, 2022, at the Hyatt Grand Cypress in Orlando, FL. Jewelers interested in becoming a CBG member should call the CBG office at (305) 868-9004 or email Joe Murphy, joe@cbgi.org.
