A large number of closures also contributed to a new look to the 2026 FDMC 300. Last year and early 2026 saw several expected — and unexpected — shutdowns, including Reborn Cabinets, TJ Hale, JTB Furniture, Howard Miller, and Kabinart. More than a dozen new companies have joined the FDMC 300 in replacement.
