Exhibitor numbers up for the second year running; Show almost sold-out.
The Harrogate Nursery Fair, which takes place between March 24th and 26th, is predicting 2013 to be its biggest show on record after seeing a ‘significant increase’ in exhibitor numbers.
Show organiser Adrian Sneyd said: “Increasing demand for exhibition space has taken us by surprise again this year and we have had an influx in toy companies with pre-school ranges wishing to attend such as Tomy, Manhattan Toy, Big Jig, B-kids and many more.
“Last year, we noted an influx in visitors from new sectors such as garden centres and DIY stores at the show and word of this appears to have spread. Baby toys and gift ranges sit perfectly in these buyer’s portfolios and opens up new sales opportunities for both toy and nursery product suppliers.”
Those companies considering attending the Harrogate Nursery Fair next year are advised to get in touch as soon as possible as the show is almost sold out.
Adrian continues: “Halls A, M and G of the Harrogate International Centre are completely full and just one stand remaining in each of Halls B, C and D. We have very limited exhibition space left and as we are also just finalising a partnership with ABC Kids Expo which could result in a US Pavilion next year. Anyone contemplating attending needs to make a decision fast.”
