Midwest Furniture Club

The Mission of The Midwest Furniture Club

Through the volunteer work of our members, the Midwest Furniture Club has grown consistently in membership while providing programs of interest. Our industry is a globally changing platform; therefore, to sustain our growth, we need each other’s support and networking to meet these challenges.

With this in mind, all of us should realize that our nucleus of talent and energy will endure. It is the passion of our membership’s dedication that provides a stage for the following:

• Successful networking of our profession
• Educational programs and seminars
• An organization that provides a future for all
• Enhancement of every part of our industry
• Providing philanthropic programs that benefit the Midwest Home Furnishings arena

Midwest Furniture Club is here for one purpose, so that our industry flourishes.

A Message From Our President

Dear Midwest Furniture Club Members,

As we all know, 2020 was a historically crazy year that we are all happy to see in the rear- view mirror. Now our country is moving forward as vaccines roll out and a return to normalcy is on the horizon. The Furniture Industry is grateful that after the Covid 19 shutdowns business is booming and it’s hard to keep up with the demand. It’s more important than ever to belong to a community and club like the Midwest Furniture Club. As a chapter of IHFRA, we offer a local network of other reps, retailers, and service providers within our industry that help us all navigate the challenges and ever-changing marketplace. With many different social events, it’s a great way to network within our industry on a local and national level. Plus, the benefits package our members enjoy is outstanding and continuing to grow. They recently added a health care and accounting package for small businesses. When you join IHFRA and the Midwest Furniture Club, your dues will be paid back several times!

We are planning another Midwest Furniture Show on September 28-30 and we expect it to be well attended. The Charity Golf Outing is looking like a possibility later this summer and another fun Social Event will be planned once we know it is safe to gather in large groups! Keep an eye out for these dates as they are still to be determined.

Our monthly board meeting is open to all members but has temporarily turned into a Zoom conference call. Let us know if you would like to attend.

Please reach out to any of our board members if you have any questions about the Midwest Furniture Club. We appreciate your membership!

Sincerely, Mark Dilling
MFC President
