Winter 2020

Winter Show Preview  By Debbie Eisele

Winter is here, but that means it is time to shop! Exhibitors are offering the latest and greatest in the gift, stationery, and custom product categories. So, buyers, start making your to-do lists, grab your walking shoes and pack your bags. The fun is about to begin.

January is filled with a diverse line-up of shows. First up is the Dallas Total Home & Gift Market, which runs Jan. 8-14. And if you are more of a west coast shopper, LA Mart runs on Jan. 9-13. Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market follows quickly and runs Jan. 14-21. If the doldrums of winter have hit already, pack some sun block and head to Vegas for Las Vegas Market, which runs Jan. 26-30. NY NOW and National Stationery Show, which are colocated with Surtex, starts off the month of February. NY NOW runs Feb. 1-5 and National Stationery Show runs Feb. 2-5. 

Plan your 2020 buying year now with the kick-off of these great markets. For a complete listing of industry trade shows, visit www.giftshopmag.com and click on Trade Show Calendar.
