About 2,600 Conway products fill the floor of the Republican National Convention this week.

The products? Virco Manufacturing Corp.’s No. 198-G convention center chair.

Virco, in Conway for more than 50 years, made the chairs that seat delegates from across the country at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, Minn.

It’s the third straight convention Republicans have purchased Virco chairs. The model in use is “particularly suited for convention centers and arenas,” said Randy Smith, the vice president of marketing for Virco.

“They like it, it’s comfortable. I think that’s why we’ve done this the last three Republican conventions,” Smith said in a telephone interview.

Smith said many of Virco’s 1,100 Conway employees will watch the convention at home and pay special attention to their work.

“We take great pride in that, absolutely, whether it’s the Republican convention or if it’s Democrats sitting in our chairs,” Smith said.
