Abbey's Convention Underway in Atlanta

Atlanta, GA, February 9, 2017—Abbey Carpet & Floor is currently holding its convention in Atlanta, Georgia.

One of the biggest news items at this year's convention was the development of a new website supported by a digital consumer advertising campaign. This new advertising focus replaces the B2C print compaign that Abbey has run for years in national shelter magazines. 

The tone of the meeting was upbeat, and Steve Silverman, president and COO, higlighted his optimism for 2017 now that the current administration in Washington appears to be more focused on pro-business policies.

The event, held at the Omni Atlanta Hotel at CNN Center, runs through the 11, with Abbey members meeting first and the Floors to Go members meeting second.

Abbey is the oldest franchise membership group in the flooring business with a total of 800 members.
