“I have been a 41 Madison showroom resident since 1991 and cannot think of a better tabletop showroom location in New York City” says Gene Williamson, President/CEO of the RAK Porcelain USA. “We look forward to showcasing our product collections with hospitality customers from the New York area and across the country at our new home here.”
Since its January 2016 launch, RAK Porcelain USA has expanded its sales and administrative organization, completed the transition and upgrade of its North American distribution center located in Weirton, West Virginia and added multiple new product lines, including the new NEOFUSION dinnerware and RAK cutlery collections, to its offering for North American customers.
“Since its global launch in 2005, the RAK Porcelain brand has become a leader in the global hospitality tabletop business,” continued Williamson. “It is our intention to bring that same level of leadership to the North American marketplace. Having a showroom at 41 Madison is a key element in that leadership effort.”
Located at 41 Madison Ave and W 26th Street, the 41 Madison building was designed by noted architect Emery Roth & Sons. The modern style glass and steel building was opened in 1974 as the New York Merchandise Mart and today contains 24 floors of showrooms from over 80 leading manufacturers of tableware, tableware housewares and gift products.About RAK Porcelain USA
