2016 Icon Honorees Recognized At Gala Event

The seventh-annual ICON HONORS celebrated global innovation as top achievers and superior achievements were recognized on the most anticipated and important night in the home and gift industry.

Staged at Atlanta’s world-renowned Fox Theatre on July 14, ICON HONORS guests enjoyed an evening of cocktails, an elaborate buffet, the Honors presentation and a special musical performance.  Honors were conferred upon those in the industry who turned their dreams into reality – those who achieve success through ingenuity, integrity, creativity, energy and hard work.

Retailers, manufacturers, sales agencies and service providers all were eligible to pursue ICON HONORS recognition in a broad field of 16 distinct categories of competition.  Honorees were selected through extensive adjudication by highly qualified experts drawn from the world of design, manufacturing and product development.
