Expansion across North America for Camira Group with new rep hires

As part of its ongoing market expansion in the United States and Canada, textile innovator Camira Group has announced new independent sales representation in multiple territories to bolster its market presence and make it easier for designers to specify its sustainable fabrics.

The announcement comes following a raft of new product introductions for both Camira and sister brand, Luna, as well as a number of senior sales appointments at the Grand Rapids, MI based company.

In New York City, representation is now handled by Gibson Interior Products, a fourth-generation family-owned independent rep group, with a dedicated showroom in Midtown Manahattan and extensive sales coverage throughout the metropolitan area.

Other appointments in Eastern USA include the Michela Group for Washington DC, Maryland and Virginia, and Go to Market for Eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware and Southern New Jersey. The southern states of Alabama, Georgia, Florida and Tennesse are now covered by Chime Contract, a leading interiors focused organisation with integral backgrounds in interior design, space planning and project management.

Meanwhile, representation in Canada is now handled through Brass Tacks in Calgary, for Western Canada, and Cor Collection in Toronto for Eastern Canada.

Emily Timm, Camira Group Director of Sales A&D, made the following comment: “We’re thrilled to have secured such high calibre representation in these important territories to drive further market growth. We’re excited to be working together with interiors professionals who share our passion for sustainability to make our portfolio of sustainable products more easily accessible to the A&D community.”

Camira is a privately-owned UK textile group founded in 1974 under the name Camborne Fabrics, but its heritage goes back to 1783 through various acquisitions. Until a management buy-out in 2006, the company was a subsidiary of Interface, an international manufacturer of textile modular floor coverings, for almost ten years. Today, Camira has an annual turnover of around £95 million and employs more than 650 people. Its products are sold in approximately 75 countries and the business produces eight million metres per year.
