Calling New and Returning Exhibitors

Following a successful launch this past winter, 7 W New York^® Baby and Kids Fair is back and ready to heat up NYC this summer. The 3-day show will once again run concurrently with the 7 W New York Gift and Home Textiles Market Week (August 13 – 19, 2010). Building on the momentum of the inaugural edition, 7 W is reaching out to both returning and new exhibitors to show off their latest and best product introductions in the following categories: textile, bedding, flooring, accessories, furniture, gifts, and home décor.

The winter show featured a mix of veteran and brand new companies that appreciated 7 W’s central location and amenities. They all agreed that aligning the growing Kids and Baby sector with the established Gift market was a successful initiative. Exhibitor, Russ Hines of Russ Berrie U.S. Gift, reported being pleased with the turn out of the first-ever show. He remarked, “We got lots of good leads from all over—not just from NY area. We were well taken care of—the hospitality factor was excellent at 7 W.”

For the summer show, exhibit hours are Monday 10am – 8pm; Tuesday 10am – 5pm; Wednesday 10am – 3pm. Special booth and gallery pricing is in place for the Baby & Kids Fair inaugural year.
