SURYA RECEIVES ICON HONORS AWARD
FOR TECHNOLOGY INNOVATIONS AT
ATLANTA SUMMER MARKET

CALHOUN, GA – Surya has received an Icon Honors award for Technology Innovation during the recent Atlanta International Gift and Home Furnishings Market. The award was given in recognition of the home accessories brand’s comprehensive social media presence and strategy.

Surya’s  social media program includes regular postings of content across multiple platforms, which can be shared by customers to generate brand awareness, showcase thought leadership and drive rug and accessory sales. The brand, which uses the “suryasocial” identification on all of its social media sites, achieved several key milestones in 2013, including reaching 100K likes on Facebook, 5K followers on Pinterest and the launch of an Instagram page. 

Surya was also recognized by AmericasMart for outstanding visual presentation in a permanent showroom. Surya won a Best of Floor Award for its themed showroom, which showcased a range of trends, including Modern Craft, Botanical, Heirloom and Metallic – unifying the vignettes, window displays and building lobby through use of an eye-catching bright pink color with orange and tan accents. This marks the third time that Surya has won the Best of Floor award. 

“We are very honored to receive these esteemed awards,” said Satya Tiwari, president ofSurya. “The Surya team works tirelessly to thoughtfully represent the depth and breadth of the Surya brand across all promotional mediums, whether that’s our social media platforms, showrooms and exhibit spaces or trade advertising. Our aim is not only to simplify the design and merchandising process for our designer and retailer customers but also to educate them on the power of social media and inspire them with fresh and innovative ideas that can be easily replicated.”

The Winter International Gift and Home Market will take place January 6 to 13, 2015.
