Registration for winter 2017 Las Vegas Market, Jan. 22-26, is open. With a record 3,700+ resources, the market will feature more new resources, greater breadth and depth and exclusive collections across all categories.
“By the numbers, summer 2016 Market was a success across the board,” said Robert Maricich, CEO, International Market Centers (IMC). “Our largest ever in terms of buyers and suppliers, we expect that our momentum will continue heading into the New Year, positioning winter 2017 Market as another record-breaker in terms of resource expansion and attendance growth.”
Beyond exhibits, the winter Las Vegas Market will offer participants a variety of special events, including Design Icon and the 12th edition of the Housewares Design Awards, as well as myriad educational sessions addressing design trends, retailing strategies and more – including the Las Vegas-exclusive FIRST LOOK trend forecast and Pantone Color of the Year presentation.
Las Vegas Market’s newly-redesigned website offers online tools to make Market preparation easier and more efficient. The Online Catalog Gallery facilitates pre-Market product sourcing and shopping; and the online Market Planner assists buyers with advance preparation and appointment scheduling. The #LVMKT app also makes at-Market navigation easier and provides on-the-go access to Market information and schedules – and the tools are enhanced every market.
