Budget cuts confronting state politicians could inhibit the ability of the High Point Furniture Market to promote itself to furniture industry insiders.
North Carolina is considering eliminating the nearly $900,000 the state contributes toward marketing the market each year. The state gave the event an extra $500,000 for promotional spending last year.
In all, North Carolina taxpayers spent more than $2.5 million to support the market last year.
High Point Market Authority president Brian Casey doubts the cuts will become a reality because lawmakers understand the market's economic impact.
A UNC Greensboro economic researcher estimated the market has a $1 billion impact.
