I attended the show on the Sunday and was immediately struck by how busy it was - from first thing in the morning. The show was buzzing all day with a terrific atmosphere which is only generated when buyers are stimulated by good product and agents are writing healthy orders. The close proximity of the car park and the compact layout of the show make it a stress free occasion and a pleasure to attend.
Year on year INDX Kids gets better and better, striving to give us retailers the best we can get. Please keep up the good work!
INDX shows provide us the platform to engage with both existing and new customers in a relaxed but professional environment. Our time invested at INDX shows delivers measurable results and gives ample time for the buyer and seller to make the right choices. It’s a staple in our calendar and we look forward to the warm welcome offered by our hosts each season.
We really enjoyed the whole show, we loved the free and convenient parking and the break-out areas. I'll be placing lots of orders and we'll definitely be back
INDX Intimate Apparel always provides the perfect environment to develop business relationships.
INDX Woman is a really good show, with lots of inspirational stands, and not forgetting the incentive of free parking! A lovely atmosphere to buy in and altogether an extremely enjoyable visit. Thank you to all the very hard working staff who contribute to the whole experience.
INDX Woman always has the best selection of exhibitors and I always find something new that I haven't seen at any other trade show. It has a lovely buzzy atmosphere and obviously, it goes without saying that from a buyers point of view, the free parking is a huge plus!
We are very happy with the continuing success of INDX Man. The show goes from strength to strength welcoming new independent retailers and brands to each edition whilst maintaining a thriving list of returning buyers and exhibitors. The atmosphere at the show for both buyers and exhibitors is buoyant - A show not to be missed in the menswear buying calendar!
INDX Woman is the perfect environment to present our brand to professional, focused buyers. The AIS team are always really helpful and supportive. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and that creates the perfect opportunity to network with buyers and other brands.
March 2023 | New Pet lifestyle Category Hailed a Success
INDX Homewares recently returned to Cranmore Park for its February 2023 edition, bringing together housewares, linens, soft furnishings, home gift and introducing new category Pets@INDX.
Organised by Associated Independent Stores (AIS), the UK’s leading buying group for Fashion, Home, and Leisure, Rachel Breen, Head of Homewares at AIS remarked that the show had been the "biggest ever homewares show with the highest number of visitors.”
Following the show, Liz Lawson from Lawsons made the following comment:
“The atmosphere was great with a buzz of activity and positivity. I loved some of the new suppliers such as Liga and bringing the product to life with demonstrations was also good”
Exhibitors have also been quick to praise the show and enjoyed the opportunity to be amongst industry colleagues:
"A very enjoyable 2 days and buyers seemed very relaxed and willing to talk more so than at the bigger shows” - Helen Marshall, Waltons
"The show was great - set up and break down straightforward; layout good…good atmosphere and we certainly want to attend regularly. Well done AIS and INDX” - David Brown, Potters Crouch
"An amazing show that was very well attended indeed" - Tim Yeadon, Captivate Brands
"As a new member of the group representing Kenwood, Delonghi, Braun and DAD distribution it couldn't have gone any better!" - Katie Clark, DAD
"A really pleasant environment for exhibitors and customers alike" - David Tennant, Dartington Crystal
"The INDX Homewares show provided us with a fantastic opportunity to showcase our products alongside other leading brands and meet with key players in the industry. We look forward to working with our customers in the future." - Stuart Page, Sleepsense International
The show also hosted a series of additional onsite events, including ceramicist Keith Brymer Jones (made legendary by the Great Pottery Throw Down) live throwing on the Forma House stand. Keith demonstrated his passion for pottery and presented his AIS exclusive collection to AIS Members at the show.
Celebrity style duo Style Sisters met with visitors on the Turner Bianca stand and unveiled their new bedlinen collection. It’s an exciting time for the sisters, who have shot to fame with their home organisation and interior styling.
Meanwhile, La Pavoni beautifully demonstrated the artistry of coffee making and provided insight into the history, heritage, and passion of the brand.
New product category Pets@INDX premiered at the show, housed in a new dedicated first floor showroom, and suppliers showcased their latest designs during a daily Dog Walk Fashion Show. Cocker spaniel Luna made everyone feel welcome throughout the two days.
INDX Homewares will return to Cranmore Park from 12 - 13 September and visitor registration is due to open shortly. Save the dates to your diary, and in the meantime, make sure you follow @INDXHome on social media for all the latest news and updates:
