FORT LEE, N.J. -- Couristan, Inc. a leading importer/manufacturer of fine, quality area rugs, residential broadloom and custom carpeting for the contract and hospitality industries has announced that it will not be participating in the upcoming Las Vegas Market, scheduled for Aug. 30-Sept. , 2020.

“The health and well-being of our employees and customers will always remain a top priority,” said Ron Couri, president and CEO. “Though this was an extremely difficult decision, the safety and health of both our employees and customers is paramount. As the complexities that surround the pandemic continue, we must create alternative means of communicating with our customers and provide our sales force with the required tools needed to service our customers during these unprecedented times.”

In response, the company has launched a series of Virtual Area Rug Market video presentations that highlight their latest introductions across the company’s three product segments; Indoor (power-loomed and handmade), Digitally Printed and its award-winning Outdoor assortment. In addition to virtual product imagery and product selling points, each video provides 5x8 and 8x11 MSRPs for each design/collection introduction.

“These virtual presentations allow our customers to review our product assortment from their home or work office, while our sales force can connect with them in a safe and responsible manner. So we invite our customers to sit back as we take them through a virtual experience of what Couristan has to offer today and tomorrow,” stated Couri.
