Atlanta —

Area rug manufacturer and importer Oriental Weavers has renewed its lease at the AmericasMart here for its 12,000-sqaure-foot space on the third floor of Building 1.

"Oriental Weavers, ORIA and our entire industry all believe Atlanta is the premier showplace for rugs," said Mike Riley, president of Oriental Weavers. "We choose to only align with the most dynamic partners, and we have for many years benefited from our partnership with AmericasMart and look forward to many more. We look forward to a fresh start to the new year in Atlanta this January."

Come Jan. 7 to 10, OW will debut two "truly revolutionary" new rug collections during the Atlanta International Area Rug market.
