Our two wholesale, handcrafted virtual trade shows held during the crazy summer of 2020, were a tremendous success; during our 2nd expo, orders placed, and buyers registered for the event grew by 68%. However, during our 3rd February 2021 Virtual Expo we broke company records with a staggering 87% increase in sales!”

The expertise and industry-specific knowledge provided by IndieMe Marketplace, positions the company for the concept of a Virtual Expo. “We want to offer the option to stay home and shop during a trade show without the added expense of travel.
