(Dallas, Texas) Anderson Hardwood Floors, a leader and trendsetter in hardwood flooring, has confirmed its participation in SURFACES 2010. Not only have they committed to returning to their 8,000 square foot, front row position they have held on the show floor for the past few years but according to Anderson President, Don Finkell, they plan to bring a surprise that will add a significant additional footprint to the show floor.

"SURFACES has always been Anderson's stage to launch new products," explained Jeff Sills, Anderson's Chief Operating Officer. "Nowhere else can we reach so many key customers in a three day period."

"It is also a place where we can meet with all the major consumer shelter magazine editors," pointed out John Woolsey, Anderson's Vice President of Marketing, "providing us with another platform to reach the consumer in a time when advertising budgets remain tight."

"We are very excited to have Anderson back in the show for 2010," says Dana Teague, Show Director, SURFACES. "The Anderson booth has always been an exciting attraction on the show floor. They are a vital part of the show and have always been a strong supporter of SURFACES."
