7 W Keeps it Cool in August
New York, NY — There will be something for everyone at 7 W New York® this August, as the Gift & Home Textiles Market Week runs in tandem with the building’s popular NYC Baby & Kids Fair, featuring the best in baby & kids fashion accessories, furnishings, gifts, textiles and more.
Along with the incomparable selection of merchandise offered at the Baby & Kids Fair on the 11th floor and in the 7 W suites, the building will host exciting events. Highlights include a presentation on Pop-Up retailing from PopUpInsider Founder and CEO, Christina Norsig and professional real estate guru Eric Michael Anton; a British gift ware preview hosted by the UK Trade & Investment of the British Consulate-General NY; and an informative and lively “Retailer Roundtable” discussion; as well as in-suite events and giveaways.
Opportunities for after-hours shopping will keep the market operating in high gear. During the building-wide soiree on Monday, showgoers will enjoy a boardwalk themed evening as they shop the Gift & Home Textiles Market suites. They can also head to the 11th floor during the Baby & Kids Fair opening night party to toast Fair exhibitors and check out their innovative offerings.
Su Hilty, VP of Marketing, 7 W New York, remarks, ” The upcoming market promises to be one of the most exciting Gift Weeks since our opening a mere 5 years ago. Not only will we have cutting edge programming for attendees, but there are many new suite openings and expansions scheduled, that will add a new product dimension to the already diverse product mix in the building. In addition, with our many showrooms and lines only found in NYC at 7 W, we look forward to welcoming more gift week attendees than ever before.”
A handpicked selection of 7 W product will be on display in the lobby, offering visitors a sneak peak of what lies ahead. In addition, 7 W showrooms will roll out the red carpet for special in-suite programming and parties.
