Porter Designs Eliminates Freight Surcharges

Furniture World News Desk on 10/13/2022

Porter Designs announced that it is eliminating freight surcharges on all new orders. The company reluctantly added these charges in 2021 due to the extraordinary spike in freight rates around the world.

“Fortunately, we’re finally getting some breathing space on these crazy freight rates,” says national sales manager Jeff Schwall. “Although furniture costs haven’t seen a significant reduction, we’re happy we are able to mitigate some pricing pressure for our customers. We have seen a significant and sustained reduction in freight rates lately, so we are passing those savings on to our retail partners.”

Porter Designs creates and acquires home furnishings across the globe, from India, China, Vietnam, and Malaysia to Mexico. Their broad production base and supply chain options help to keep costs down for retailers and their customers. “We have discovered that you can’t have all your eggs in one basket anymore, diversity is the key to bringing real value to the market,” says Schwall.
