On September 18, 2014, In Industry News by Greg Thompson
DELRAY BEACH, FL - Twin-Star International, manufacturer of furniture, thermoelectric wine coolers and electric heaters, is set to open its first Far East warehouse to support the company’s Sharetainer sales program, aimed at providing retailers large and small with maximum flexibility in their container orders.
The warehouse will begin fulfilling orders October 1st, in time for the all-important fall and winter selling seasons.
Based in Dalishan, Guandong Province, China, the new warehouse affords retailers the opportunity to mix their direct container shipments with a larger variety of Twin-Star’s well-known branded products including all its ClassicFlame and Tresanti lines as well as Duraflame PowerHeat heaters.
With nearly 300 products, retailers now have the broadest assortment of product options from which to choose to fill their Sharetainer container orders. With no individual product minimums, smaller to mid-size retailers can assemble 300-cubic-foot container orders with a product mix that allows them better management of their in-stock inventories and the ability to price Twin-Star’s award-winning products aggressively and competitively in their markets.
The Far East warehouse joins Twin-Star’s domestic fulfillment facilities in Reno, NV, Mooresville, NC, Elwood, IL and at the company’s global headquarters in Delray Beach, FL. With more than 12,000 active retail floors, Twin-Star’s promise is to provide each customer, whether they are a mass merchandiser or an independent retailer, with a host of in-demand products, delivered in the timeliest possible fashion, and at the best margins.
The company already maintains a 95% fill rate on all their direct container orders and now with Sharetainer retailers can achieve even greater profitability on stylish products including environmentally friendly, energy efficient electric fireplaces, many with SpectraFire Plus flame technology; dual zone wine cabinets; feature-packed kitchen islands; multi-function media mantels with Bluetooth connectivity; and connected smart home office products.
Robert Cohen, president of Twin-Star International, noted, “Twin-Star has long been recognized for its innovative products and superior customer service. Our Sharetainer program and new China-based warehouse and distribution center supports our ongoing company mission of providing efficiencies for improved delivery and competitive pricing.”
During the High Point Market, retailers can learn more about Twin-Star, their product lines, and the new Sharetainer program by visiting the company’s showroom, Market on Green #304.
