Bob Maricich revolutionized the market landscape when he merged the failing World Market Center in Las Vegas with three of High Point’s biggest properties to form the International Market Centers, now known as Andmore, in 2011. Eventually, he brought Atlanta’s AmericasMart and Decorative Arts Center into the fold as well. In the last two years, the former CEO has taken a step back from Andmore’s daily operations, transitioning into the role of Executive Chairman of the Board, yet his finger remains on the pulse of the furniture industry and its future.
On this episode of the podcast, Maricich speaks with host Dennis Scully about his peripatetic career backstory, the benefits of partnering with private equity firms, and where he thinks AI will have the biggest impact.
