Owner returns from India rug-buying trip, keeping rug prices low despite rising costs

Saturday, April 2nd, 2011

Dickie, the owner of Green Front, just returned from a buying trip to India.  He was able to confirm what our agent has been telling us for months: the price of wool in the market has more than doubled over the last year.

However, through skillful negotiations and the power of cold, hard cash, he was able to aquire new merchandise at the old prices. Despite the rising cost of production, Green Front’s unbeatable prices will remain the same on the best selection of oriental rugs in the U.S.  With close to a million rugs in stock, we are sure to have the perfect rug for your space.
