Curated by buying group AIS, INDX is celebrating 10 years in 2023 and this year’s show is backed by leading trend agency, Scarlet Opus, which guides members through the consumer landscape.
Visiting buyers will be able to hear from director of consumer behaviour insights and trends at Scarlet Opus, Phil Pond, who helps build world class retail environments.
This year will welcome 24 new suppliers at the Homewares Show from 21-22 February including Burton McCall, Swan, Potters Crouch, Georg Jensen and LIGA, as well as seven returning suppliers, including Le Creuset, Turner Bianca and Joseph Joseph.
One of the draws to the show for independent retailers, is its ability to provide access to 36 brands from 10 leading electrical suppliers, each of which has a range of new products lined up for launch.
Rachel Breen, head of homewares, commented: “When we speak to our suppliers, members, and show visitors, we really listen to the challenges they are facing and want to ensure our shows are where they feel they can get business done. Many of the key suppliers are now starting to streamline their trade show attendance, and we are incredibly proud of the fact many are prioritising the INDX schedule, evidenced in the range of new contenders and returning residents.
“We also continue to keep a close eye on the changing demands on the industry. We are aware that buying patterns are constantly changing, so it’s important that we are able to be flexible to this in order to best serve our members.
“As we approach our 10-year anniversary in 2023, it is clear that a more consolidated show offering is the best way to cater to the modern market. We’re therefore adjusting the way that we deliver them so that everyone involved is able to draw the maximum benefit.”
