TOCCOA, GA - Osborne Wood Products, Inc. says it recorded a surge in seasonal table slide sales. As a result, the wood components company says it plans to offer buyers an Appreciation Sale Coupon during this year’s holiday season.

Osborne Wood Products has been a supplier of unfinished wood components since 1979. In 2010, the company added table extension slides to their product catalog. Slides are a popular component among furniture makers and hobbyist niches. Osborne's how-to videos on assembling tables using its slides have also proven popular.

“Osborne Wood Products, Inc. has been an industry leader in providing precision rock hard maple table slides in over 12 sizes utilized in various customer applications," says Osborne CEO Leon Osborne. "These existing table slides accommodate both pedestals and four legged tables. Customer demand is the driving force for Osborne.” 

Osborne says it examined records from 2013 and 2014, mining data to look at ordering patterns. Osborne found that during the months of September through November sales in table extension slides peaked. The highest monthly slide sales were recorded in November 2014, exceeding the year’s lowest performing month by over 80%.

With expectations for record sales in 2015, Osborne Wood Products plans to capitalize on demand for table extension slides. During the months of September and October, Osborne will extend a discount coupon to both new and returning customers. Using the coupon code SNN0920, customers will receive 20% off all table slides ordered during this time period, and may take advantage of this sale online or by placing an order by phone.
