I am about to submit my company web site to Dmoz
(http://www.dmoz.com/), but am having difficulty choosing the best
catagory.

The site is http://www.laytrad.co.uk/

We import the furniture that we offer, and sell it in the uk. We do
not sell to retail e.g. one or two pieces. We sell to other business
like restaurants and leisure facilties.

Can you come up with the 'correct' catagory, or at least one with the
best fit for our business?

Thanks,

David

You are allowed to have TWO listings with Dmoz - the first is subject
specific; the second is Geographic. In this case, I believe the
categories that best fit your business are:

     
Business: Consumer Goods and Services: Office Products: Furniture
http://dmoz.org/Business/Consumer_Goods_and_Services/Office_Products/Furniture/
  
(mostly all manufacturing companies - 174 listings - a few provide
contract furniture)
  
  
Regional: Europe: United Kingdom: Business and Economy: Industries:
Import and Export
http://dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Business_and_Economy/Industries/Import_and_Export/
  
(Import and export companies all based in UK - 26 listings - 4 are
furniture importers)
  
------
  
If you scroll down to the bottom of each page you will notice it says:
"Volunteer to edit this category," which means the category you have
selected has no direct Editor, and this may affect how quickly your
site gets listed. It would be preferrable then if you were were to
submit to a more general category that *does* have an editor, as this
will improve your chances. By doing so, your submission will be
redirected to the appropriate dmoz editor and your site is likely to
be listed quicker.
  
With these factors in mind, I would submit your company site here instead: 
    
Business: Consumer Goods and Services
http://dmoz.org/Business/Consumer_Goods_and_Services/
  
Regional: Europe: United Kingdom: Business and Economy: Industries
http://dmoz.org/Regional/Europe/United_Kingdom/Business_and_Economy/Industries/
