LAS VEGAS – February 6, 2024 – ANDMORE’s semi-annual Las Vegas Spring Buying Event, featuring nearly 50 home, gift and lifestyle permanent showrooms across Building C and the Las Vegas Design Center (LVDC), will be held March 3 – 5, 2024, at World Market Center Las Vegas. To extend business opportunities for buyers and sellers, the trade-only event will run concurrently with ToyFest, the nation’s first full toy tradeshow of 2024. Onsite registration is required, and buyers can RSVP at https://www.lasvegasmarket.com/Year-Round/Off-Market-Events/Spring-Buying-Event.
“After a successful Winter Las Vegas Market, select showrooms, as well as the Las Vegas Design Center (LVDC), will welcome buyers to World Market Center Las Vegas again in March,” said Dorothy Belshaw, ANDMORE℠ executive vice president, chief growth officer.
The Spring Buying Event includes a growing list of some 15 gift and home manufacturers, as well as sales agency showrooms, located in Building C. Currently confirmed participants opening March 3 – 5 are: Diverse Marketing; F.E.M. Sales; Fine Lines; Karen Alweil Studio; Kathleen Milne Company; Keena; The New Era Sales Team (NEST); Next Step Reps; Oak Street Wholesale; R-Biz Associates; Sales Producers; SPI Home; Toyology; and ZODAX. Select showrooms will be open for buyers before Spring Buying event, March 1 – 2, to give attendees extra time to source, and appointments are highly recommended.
The March event is an extension of World Market Center Las Vegas’ open year-round offerings in the Las Vegas Design Center (LVDC). During the Spring Buying Event, buyers can source in LVDC’s 30+ designer showrooms, which present more than 120 product lines, plus additional gift, lifestyle, gourmet, tabletop and decor showrooms on campus.
As an added benefit, Toyfest, the second oldest and second largest toy show in the United States, will run concurrently with Spring Buying Event at World Market Center Las Vegas, offering cross-market opportunities for buyers and sellers alike. Hosted by the Western Toy & Hobby Retailers Association, ToyFest attracts hundreds of buyers and presents 500+ exhibitors in categories such as: toys, gifts, infant and toddler, games, education & books, stem, museum, hobby, costume, beauty, and novelty.
