Ferguson Opens New Showroom

NEWPORT NEWS, VA—Ferguson plans to expand its showroom in Tulsa, OK, and will conclude renovation on September 1, 2007, allowing customers to choose from an enhanced selection of high-end products.  Located at 6525 E. 42nd Street, the 6,500 -square-foot showroom will be more than four times its original size and will feature a first class gallery offering plumbing, door hardware, lighting and appliances.  Previously, the location carried plumbing products only.

Ferguson’s showrooms are designed with plumbers, builders, remodelers and designers in mind and offer a vast selection of products from today’s most recognized manufacturers. “We are excited to open this first-class facility and support the future growth of Tulsa’s downtown area through programs such as ‘Vision 2025,” said Charles Tracy, manager for the Tulsa location.  “We look forward to broadening our offering to create a true one-stop-shopping experience to contractors and homeowners in this market.” 

Highly trained consultants are available to help customers create a personalized, custom look in their home. Consultations are encouraged and can be scheduled by calling the showroom at (918)628-1500.
