"BiltRite Furniture has been in business for 79 years. My grandfather started out selling custom-upholstered sofas one at a time; then, in 1948 we opened our downtown store and stayed in that location until 2006, expanding to 43,000 square feet over the years. About a year ago, we opened a new, 65,000 square foot facility in a great location right next to the freeway. I've been going to the High Point Market since 1988, and what really sets High Point apart is that it's all about the furniture. The showrooms are larger and they stay open later; the selection is better and there are no other distractions. Plus, it's very easy to get around. With the new transportation system, we don't even have to rent a car anymore. If you want to focus on business of buying furniture, High Point is the place to be."
