Article Abstract:
Pricing in the office furniture industry is the result of the interdynamics of all elements of the industry. This was the consensus among industry leaders from the manufacturing, design and dealer sectors in a discussion of product pricing and its effects on the industry. Among the salient points which came up during the roundtable are that unit price is dependent on the size of the order and that manufacturers do not divulge the pricing structure to protect the dynamics of the manufacturer/dedicated dealer relationship.
