INDX Homewares shows are very important to Wax Lyrical and they allow us to have meaningful engagement with our customers and help build long term relationships with AIS members. The team at AIS are hugely supportive of the event and are always there to lend a hand
I've always found the INDX Homewares show a great place to meet with current and future business partners. After being a proud supplier to the AIS membership over many decades the INDX show continues to evolve & blend both traditional & innovative ideas in the ever changing retail scene. Newness is the key to current and future business success and INDX is the place to be.
I have been involved with AIS and INDX shows for 10 years and always found them to be professionally organised, a great place for buyers to select ranges, and suppliers to display the latest product. It is also a warm and friendly environment offering both buyers and manufacturers networking opportunities.
INDX Homewares is the ideal venue for us to showcase our portfolio of leading brands and products to AIS members and retailers. The show creates an opportunity to network with the Buyers in order to maximise sales. The AIS team are very helpful and supportive during the show. It’s a show all our team enjoy attending
INDX Homewares is the only event in the UK where you can see all the major suppliers under one roof. The displays are always high quality, giving you plenty of inspiration for your own in store merchandising, along with mood boards and up to date trends for the coming season. The AIS team and the suppliers work hard to make the environment which is easy to select and buy from.
The INDX Homewares show is vital to our business and the AIS team provide an ambience which is warm and inviting. It gives us a place where we can focus on the upcoming season, see the suppliers on a one-to-one basis to view their product. We always find great deals which provides us with strong promotions to attract customers to our stores. It’s also always good to catch-up with fellow retailers and be able to network too. With free car parking and onsite catering, you can relax and focus on the business in hand.

Exploring ‘the business of sleep’ and tackling topics including sustainability, circularity, and the importance of sleep, the Retail Insights were led by a selection of industry experts, headlined by Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill and well received by attendees and participants alike:
“It’s been great to see so many of our customers and retail partners at INDX Beds & Bedroom and it’s been great to be able to talk about new product and new developments. The new guest speaker sessions were also well attended – it really shows our industry’s passion for momentum and development” – Richard Gretton, Hypnos Beds
