MetraAV has named Nebraska Furniture Mart (NFM) its first-ever Retailer of the Year for 2021. This accolade is presented to recognize a retailer that has shown a strong commitment to a successful partnership and exceptional sales growth throughout the year.
“NFM goes above and beyond to help improve our marketing and retail presence for MetraAV products sold within their stores and website. We’ve mutually benefited from a partnership reinforced by open communication and strong support to succeed in providing their customers with the best home theater solutions,” says Jessy Crabb, general manager of MetraAV.
This is the first of what will become an annual award presented from MetraAV to show appreciation to a retailer based on sales growth, support, and overall commitment to the brand’s partnership.
“On Behalf of NFM, I’d like to thank Metra for awarding us the 2021 Retailer of the Year. We are honored by the recognition. We would also like to acknowledge the efforts of our entire Home Theater teammates – our success relies on their dedication, level of expertise and enthusiasm towards a world class selling and shopping environment. Our partnership with MetraAV assists us in creating a positive and informative experience for our customers throughout their shopping journey. NFM looks forward to our continued partnership,” says David Otte, electronics division merchandising manager of NFM.
Nebraska Furniture Mart was founded by Rose Blumkin in 1937 in the basement of her husband’s pawn shop in Omaha, Nebraska. In 1983, investor Warren Buffett purchased a majority interest in NFM and made it part of the Berkshire Hathaway family of companies.
