ATLANTA–More than 200 vendors have expanded their space in the Temporaries “Market within the Market” for the upcoming Atlanta International Gift and Home Furnishings Market, according to a statement from AmericasMart Atlanta, where the show will take place.
The Temporaries section encompasses more than 4,000 booths in 25 specialty product categories. These are in addition to the more than 2,000 permanent showrooms within the AmericasMart Atlanta’s four-building campus, the statement said. It added that the Temporaries “remain strong” for the upcoming market because of “growing demand and continued momentum sparked by the spectacular January 2009 Building 2 WestWing debut.”
In the statement, Don Trandem, executive vice president of The Memory Co., said the company has enlarged its space “because of increased traffic on the new temporary floor” during the January show.
The Atlanta International Gift and Home Furnishings Market is schedule for July 8-15.
