How the Alliance works

Your international marketplace, under one roof

Instead of chasing factories across the globe, walk one showroom in the Furniture Capital of the World and buy direct.

01

One destination

See furniture, lighting, art, rugs, statuary and outdoor from manufacturers around the world in a single visit.

02

Direct containers

Order full containers straight from Alliance manufacturers, with no middleman in between.

03

Consolidation programs

Combine pieces from several Alliance manufacturers into one shipment instead of buying full containers from each.

04

Market exclusivity

Ask about exclusive designs for your market, so your floor doesn’t look like the store down the road.

Good to know

Alliance questions, answered

Who can buy through the IMS Alliance?

Furniture stores, design professionals and contract specifiers source here, and the showroom is also open to the public 52 weeks a year, Monday through Saturday, 10 AM to 5 PM.

What does “one source” mean?

You can buy from many Alliance manufacturers but work with one team for billing, shipping and customer service.

Can I order by the container, or mix manufacturers?

Yes. Ask about direct containers, or our consolidation programs that combine pieces from several Alliance manufacturers into one shipment.

Is exclusivity available for my market?

Market exclusivity is available on select collections. Tell us where you sell and what you’re looking for, and we’ll let you know what’s possible.

I’m a manufacturer. Can I show at IMS?

We’re always glad to talk with manufacturers who want a year-round presence in High Point. Call 336-454-0388 or email us to start the conversation.

5 continents. 15 countries. One stop in High Point.

Visit the Alliance showroom this week, or reach out and we’ll start sourcing for you.
