AUTUMN GIFT & HOMEWARE FAIR

Trade Show Exhibition 2012

4th - 6th March 2012. Held at the Auckland Showgrounds. This was our third Trade Show but our firs Autumn Gift Fair. We were lucky to get a good corner spot in Hall 6 that worked really well for us. The response to our stand was overwhelmng. We got so many new customers that just loved our umbrellas and childrens ponchos. We recieved many comliments of the colour and impact of our show stand. We will certainly be retuning to the Autumn Gift Fair in 2013. (Click on the logo to visit the Gift Fair web site)

SPRING GIFT & HOMEWARE FAIR

Trade Show Exhibition 2011

21st - 23rd August 2011. Was held at the Auckland Showgrounds. This was our second outing to the Auckland Gift Fair. We were located in Hall 7 on the right hand side. We had a slighlty smaller show stand than last time but were still able to display by far the biggest range of umbrellas at the show. This of course reflects that we stock the largest range of fashion and childrens umbrellas in New Zeland. New products we released at the show were new designs in Galleria range (both auto stick and auto open/close folding models) featuring georpous bright flower designs. We also released 3 new childrens umbrellas of cute Fairies with gel and glitter handles. We also had 3 new womens manual folding umbrella designs.

It was great to catch up with our existing customers and for many to finally put a face to a name! We were also heartend by the number of new people that approached us at the show and enthused over our umbrella range. We welcome them all aboard as new customers.

The show was certainly a success for us this year and we plan to be back again this time at the Autumn Gift Fair in March 2012. So look out for us then.

29th - 31st August 2010. Held at the Auckland Showgrounds. This was our first Trade Show attended only weeks after purchasing the business. The previous owners Bill & Karen Sonnetag helped us to setup and Robert Sharpe from our Australian supplier Clifton Umbrellas helped us on the stand for the entire weekend demonstrating the re-release of Zip It products. It was a great atmosphere and it was great to meet some of our existing customers and of course to meet/make new customers (Click on the logo to visit the Gift Fair web site)
