The only international sourcing platform of its kind in the UK, Source Home & Gift taking place from 5th – 8th February at NEC Birmingham, has announced a comprehensive and compelling line-up of over 200 audited, quality manufacturers from around the world including China, India, Peru, Egypt, Pakistan, Ghana, Nepal, Senegal, Singapore, across Europe and the USA, who will join the inaugural show which runs parallel to Spring Fair.
Source Home & Gift will showcase homewares, furniture, gifts, toys, textiles, packaging, and stationery and greetings producers and manufacturers from over 20 countries, including dedicated country pavilions from China, three Indian pavilions organised by Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts EPCH, and the Handloom Export Promotion Council HEPC, as well as an exclusive Senegalese pavilion.
Suzanne Ellingham, Director of Sourcing of Source Home & Gift says, “It’s important to me that our show is truly international and that we have a fantastic mix of large-scale manufacturing capabilities, balanced with beautiful handicrafts from around the world. What is even more important is that this show is a trusted platform. Every manufacturer, or maker, that exhibits at the show is able to work in the UK and supply to Europe to our standards. We are bringing the best global responsible manufacturers to the NEC in February, and we are working with governments worldwide to find the best exporters with good, safe, working practices. We are taking the pain out of global sourcing and saving buyers flights around the world by bringing manufacturers right to them. The proposition of a trade show of fully audited manufacturers that at least have a Sedex audit has proven exceptionally popular with all major retailers and wholesalers. It makes Source Home & Gift a must attend event for every buyer or procurement head we speak too.”
For the very first time Source Home & Gift introduce a Senegalese pavilion via the Chamber of Trades Dakar. They will be showcasing six artisan producers specialising in home, gift and handicraft products. The pavilion will be made up of SME businesses who will be keen to export their high-quality products to the UK and explore business opportunities.
Visitors will discover three Indian pavilions at Source Home & Gift including a showcase from EPCH (Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts). EPHC are one of the biggest export promotion councils in India across all sectors and have been coming to Spring Fair since 1994. 16 inspiring companies are exhibiting including packaging suppliers, jute bag manufacturers, fashion jewellery and accessories, home & decorative items, textiles and housewares.
