Dalton, Ga. —

Kaleen, manufacturer of hand-made area rugs, has acquired a new showroom at the AmericasMart showroom building in Atlanta.

Joe Barkley, executive vp, described the space as "a statement of our growth and further support for the Atlanta market."

The new showroom at 3 - C9 more than doubles Kaleen's current showroom space and will be opened in time for the summer market, July 15-18.

"The new space will allow a larger and more professional stage in which to display our ever-increasing product assortment," Barkley said.

Over the past three years Kaleen has increased its presence by opening showrooms in the International Home Furniture Center in High Point, N.C., and in the World Market Center in Las Vegas to support the growth of its rug business.
