Atlanta Market showrooms to host coordinated events across Floors 17, 18

This June, the 17th and 18th floors of Building Two at AmericasMart Atlanta are turning up the energy with coordinated, hospitality-driven experiences designed to make time at market more enjoyable, productive and memorable for retailers.

On Tuesday, June 9, the 18th floor presents Shop the Top, a coordinated celebration with a playful “cherry on top” theme. Participating showrooms will serve cherry-inspired bites and beverages, while teams dressed in red bring a bold, cohesive energy to the floor.

Participating 18th floor showrooms include:

  • Darrah & Co.
  • DEMDACO
  • OneCoast
  • Transpac Brands

Then on Thursday, June 11, the 17th floor takes the spotlight with Sparkle on 17, continuing its signature, high-spirited collaboration. Showroom teams and vendors across the floor will shine in sparkle, creating a vibrant, welcoming atmosphere that reflects the fun and creative spirit of the industry. Each showroom will serve breakfast bites in the morning, followed by a roving King of Pops cart in the afternoon offering refreshing popsicles. Throughout the day, showrooms will also offer a selection of beverages including wine, beer, and soda, creating a celebratory environment for buyers.

Participating 17th floor showrooms include:

  • Anne McGilvray & Co.
  • Blake Road
  • Briarwood Lane
  • Designworks Collective
  • Harman
  • Harper Group
  • Just Got 2 Have It!
  • The Royal Standard
  • Two’s Company

Together, these activations reflect a shared belief: when showrooms collaborate, the market experience becomes something more. With creativity, connection and a touch of celebration woven throughout, retailers can expect an environment that inspires discovery while making the most of their time on the floor.

“We are excited to partner with fellow showrooms to create a cohesive experience that brings energy and inspiration to the 18th floor,” said Laurie Gilner, president and CEO of Transpac Brands. “Shop the Top celebrates our retailers and adds an extra layer of fun to a productive market.”

“The magic of these collaborations comes from a collective commitment to putting the retailer experience first,” said Kelly Bristol, vice president of business development at Just Got 2 Have It! “With the Summer Market moving to June this year, there is a fresh energy and sense of momentum around the timing. It is an exciting opportunity to connect with retailers in a new way and kick off the season with a different rhythm.”

Retailers are encouraged to explore both floors and join in the celebration throughout the week.
