KATHY IRELAND HOME BY MARTIN DOUBLES LAS VEGAS WORLD MARKET CENTER SHOWROOM SPACE

San Diego, CA- January 29, 2007- Kathy Ireland Home® by Martin (KIHBM) is doubling their showroom space at the Las Vegas World Market Center (A1025). The new 15,000 square foot show room will open for the January furniture market.

"This addition is greatly needed," said Vice President of Sales, Karl Eulberg. "Our ever expanding selection of home office and home entertainment configurations and styles created the need for more space. We are excited about being able to present a wider selection of products to our new and current customers."

Rather than move to an entirely new space, KIHBM acquired an adjacent showroom which is located near the 10th floor elevators and escalators. The newly expanded showroom will allow KIHBM to display a wider selection of new and existing product.

Another addition will be computer workstations for the sales team to use in presenting new shipping programs and potential savings. KIHBM hopes that this larger space will allow their sales team to make more effective presentations to customers during busy times.

In 1981 Gil Martin founded Martin Furniture, a premier producer of home office and home entertainment furniture. Twenty-two years later, in April 2003, Martin Furniture partnered with Kathy Ireland World Wide and became Kathy Ireland Home by Martin. In 2005 the company grossed over $63 million in sales. Martin products are sold through several retail channels all over the country including warehouse clubs, commercial office, catalogs, Top 100 Retailers and specialty stores.
