Answer: High Point

Explanation: Hi, High Point has played a vital role in the history of furniture in North Carolina, and the entire region. After the turn of the 20th century, the furniture industry in North Carolina grew rapidly. High Point became the center of furniture manufacturing and marketing in the South, and eventually in the entire country.

Following World War II, an estimated 60% of all furniture made in America was produced within a 150-mile radius of High Point, and the city’s week-long semi-annual furniture markets have become the major international wholesale markets for the industry.
