Ribbon cutting for Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting

The ribbon cutting at Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting was a feast for the eyes! The Ferguson showroom represented the finest, most up to date plumbing, appliances, lighting, cabinets, countertops and accessory product available from today's quality manufacturers. It was beautiful and the consultants very knowledgeable. They also have environmentally friendly products such as high- efficiency plumbing fixtures that conserve water, lighting fixtures that conserve electricity, appliances that reduce high energy bills, heating and cooling equipment that offer energy savings and improved comfort and tankless water heaters that conserve energy and water. The Fresno Chamber Ambassadors were given a detailed tour of the facility, before the actual ribbon cutting. We also learned that Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting offers fun activities as well with one of them being cooking classes. How fun is that! If you would like to visit the show room it is located at 704 N Lavern Ave (SE corner of Belmont and Fowler Avenues) or you can call them at (559) 253-2950 or visit their website at http://www.ferguson.com/.
