Show Profile
THE SHOW
Twice a year Top Drawer is a unique retail buying event, giving your company unrivalled access to the most influential buyers from across the UK and Europe.
Established for more than 30 years, Top Drawer is trusted by brands as the best platform for showcasing design-inspired products that will enable retailers to compete with the high street.
A unique event, ranges, original product & directional labels are presented in a contemporary environment that mirrors our savvy buyers. This point of reference helps retailers position your product.
Trusted by suppliers & buyer-friendly, Top Drawer combines business seminars, retail surgeries and trend info from experts in the industry such as Mary Portas and Kelly Hoppen. The ideal show platform.
International retailers visit London to source original and British design. Ranges are also promoted to buyers via our Product GB and Eco trails. Products are selected by independent experts who are industry insiders and help shape buying trends.
New design is the lifeblood of Top Drawer and, as a result, our bursary programmes - demonstrated through initiatives like 'Spotted' - introduce and support the entrance of innovative and original design talent to the market.
Edited for quality: Top Drawer’s selection policy for quality and design-led collections, approved by an independent committee, means we meet buyers’ expectations – helping them buy at our show
EXHIBITOR TESTIMONIALS
“Top Drawer was a fantastic show and our orders taken were way beyond expectation. Our very best show in 40 years of trading. We saw all our key UK buyers and set up new export accounts too. … we were so busy that I didn’t get off the stand for a proper look around.”
- Polly Thomson, McLaggan Smith Mugs.
"Top Drawer Spring is always a very good show for us, but this year it proved far beyond our expectation. With orders from a variety of retailers from both the UK and Europe plus a very exciting mixture of UK and international potential new customers we couldn’t have asked for more. The show had a great look and feel about it which seemed to have a very positive effect on the buyers; we’re looking forward to returning next year!"
- Holly Ashby, Jellycat.
