ATLANTA — Eight buying events hosted in 2023 by Andmore have been recognized among the fastest-growing trade shows in the U.S. by Trade Show Executive. Atlanta Market, Formal Markets, Las Vegas Market, and Shoppe Object are among the “Fastest 50” and “Next 50” honorees of 2023.
Trade Show Executive’s “Fastest 50” Awards honor the fastest-growing trade shows in the U.S., while the “Next 50″ recognize strong contenders for next year. Both awards are based on metrics including exhibit space and number of exhibitors.
Four Andmore trade shows in 2023 were named among the nation’s “Fastest 50” by net exhibit space: Formal Markets Atlanta in August, Las Vegas Market Winter, and Shoppe Object Summer and Winter. Shoppe Object Summer and Winter 2023 also won additional awards for fastest growth in the number of exhibitors.
Meanwhile, two markets were recognized among the nation’s “Next 50” shows by number of exhibiting companies: Atlanta Market Winter and Las Vegas Market Winter.
“Andmore is honored that our markets have been recognized for growth in both number of exhibitors and overall square footage – both of which are key tradeshow metrics,” said Andmore President Dorothy Belshaw. “In the gift, home and apparel industries these award-winning markets serve, temporary exhibits are recognized as a hub for discovery of both emerging innovators and industry-leading brands. In Atlanta and Las Vegas, in particular, the tradeshow is an important complement to thousands of permanent showrooms that also comprise our markets.”
