Furniture World News Desk on 11/16/2017

Art Van PureSleep and BEDGEAR recently announced that they have partnered to open 17 Performance Sleep Shops® before the end of this year. The new shops featuring the lifestyle collection of BEDGEAR Performance products will be housed in select Art Van PureSleep locations in the Midwest.

The BEDGEAR Performance Sleep Shop will share with Art Van PureSleep guests the approach to identifying sleep as essential to greater achievement in an active life. The enhanced retail concept designed for the active lifestyle allows individuals to build their personalized sleep system based on their sleep position and body frame.

"We are excited to partner with a like-minded, forward-thinking retailer like Art Van PureSleep, who has always led the market in delivering specialty shopping experiences to the Michigan market," said Eugene Alletto, CEO of BEDGEAR. "Our vision for our brand store concept is to create a truly great omnichannel guest experience. The shop design brings a new way to present bedding to young, millennial customers as well as everyone with a millennial mindset, which focuses on having purpose and getting more from life."

The process begins by selecting between two mattress comfort choices, the M1 and the M1X, followed by a personalized performance pillow fitting. Shoppers can complete the sleep system with a selection of breathable layers including air flow enhancing sheets, mattress protectors and performance blankets. The personalized shopping experience pioneered by BEDGEAR includes interactive technology displays with a focus on curated information for customer impact.

"The addition of BEDGEAR's Performance Sleep Shops® in Art Van PureSleep further enhance the educational and interactive guest experience that distinguishes us," said Neil Zimmer, Senior Vice President of Art Van PureSleep, the Midwest's No. 1 independent mattress retailer. "We are proud to partner with this exceptional brand."
