DirectBuy, the leading members-only showroom and home design center that offers merchandise at manufacturer-direct prices, opened a new full-service design showroom in Pooler, Georgia, located at 1212 East Highway 80, Suite 400. To celebrate the opening, DirectBuy of Savannah (http://www.directbuy-savannah.com) hosted a reception in their new 9,600 sq. foot showroom.
DirectBuy enables consumers to purchase brand-name merchandise - including kitchen cabinets, home furnishings, appliances, flooring, lighting, and much, much more -- at members-only,
manufacturer-direct prices. By providing merchandise without traditional retail markup, DirectBuy dramatically increases the purchasing power of its members, enabling them to enjoy the
home of their dreams.
Not only is DirectBuy of Savannah committed to helping families in the area live and buy better, but Savannah natives Troy and Michelle also wanted to help give back to the community.
That's why they chose Savannah's very own Star Fish Caf to cater the event. Star Fish Caf, although known for its delicious cuisine, has gained national recognition for training
low-income and homeless individuals in their culinary art program. The Star Fish Caf is a joint venture between Union Mission and the Savannah Technical College. Since it's opening in
2001, hundreds of Starfish Caf graduates are now working in the food services industry in Savannah and able to support themselves.
"When I started planning our grand opening, I knew right away that I wanted Star Fish Caf to cater our event," said Michelle. "Not only do they serve unbelievable food, but we believe in
their concept and really want to make a contribution to help support their students."
To assist members with their home renovation projects, DirectBuy employs interior designers and product specialists who are specially trained in one of five areas of merchandise: Home
Furnishing, Home Improvement, Flooring, Accessories, and Entertainment/Outdoor.
DirectBuy members also have access to renowned designer Christopher Lowell. Lowell has designed twelve room settings - created exclusively with products available through DirectBuy -
using his Seven Layers of Design method. An innovative approach to home dcor, The Seven Layers of Design keep homeowners on budget and from feeling overwhelmed by their projects.
"DirectBuy has offered its members unmatched savings, selection and service for the past 35 years, and we are excited to bring that tradition to residents in and around the community of
