The World Floor Covering Association (WFCA), recently announced formal plans for the fcB2B annual meeting, to be held August 15-17 at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort in Orlando, Fla. The event will coincide with the CFI Convention and other industry events.
“I am urging all flooring manufacturers, distributors, software companies, along with retailers and industry groups interested in advancing their businesses electronically, to attend,” said Phil Zolan, executive director of WFCA. “This year’s conference will include an unveiling and implementation of an all new set of floor covering B2B standards. In many cases, outdated business-to-business transaction systems have been hindering trading partners across industries that have adopted more advanced B2B platforms. The new standards will move our whole industry from one based on 1997 technology to current 2017 standards that are now fully compatible with standards used in all major industries around the world.”
