A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR
“WElcome to the first journal of the year 2020!”
I cannot believe I am hearing myself say that, as
it sounds like the intro to a Star Trek episode!
Some will be glad that 2019 has finally ended,
what with the media being full of politics,
presumptions and scaremongering. Our
industry teetering backwards and forwards as
some organisations continued to exit the UK
and others expanded and invested providing
large value opportunities for businesses within
the Furniture & Interiors sector.
At CFAS we have taken the decision to freeze
our 2019 prices, providing both existing and
new members the opportunity to promote their
products and/or services, allowing them to remain
competitive and reach a wide audience. We are
continuing with our four seasonal journals: winter,
spring, summer and autumn, and not forgetting the
highly regarded CDW festival Journal.
The 2020 journal special themes are:
Winter - Circulated in January - Space Design Concepts
Spring - Circulated in March - Planet Health
Summer - Circulated in July - Workspace Health
Autumn - Circulated in October - Orgatec 2020
CDW Festival - Circulated in May
EDITORIALS
Even though we have more Brexit uncertainty whilst
the intricacies are being discussed, resolved and
rolled out, there are a few things we can be certain
of: the dominance of Social Media, the continuing
acknowledgement of environmental considerations
and the importance of workplace health and
wellbeing, diversity and inclusion.
This is why the CFAS journals and social media
platforms are providing our members the
opportunity to promote their expertise in a highly
competitive market, where price and quality has to
be within a holistic offering to be recognised.
Please contact us if you would like advice and
support regarding your 2020 marketing campaigns
to attract a larger audience and generate
opportunities, and as usual, please do provide
your feedback on this journal, editorials are warmly
welcomed.
All the best,
Alan Boyle, CFAS
