BEST OF BRITISH AT THE JANUARY FURNITURE SHOW
Offering the best in British furniture and furnishings, the all-new January Furniture Show is the place to be for buyers and commercial specifiers who are looking for the latest products and developments in the UK contract and interior design market.
With a fantastic line-up of exhibitors – with specialists in the hotel, restaurant and contract markets – the three-day show runs from Tuesday January 13 until Thursday January 15 across five packed halls at Birmingham NEC.
Said Laraine Janes, co-director of the January Furniture Show: “For those who have a business in the hospitality market, this show provides the ideal platform to showcase products. It’s the first opportunity of the season to see a selection of the very latest new and exclusive products.”
Many of the companies showing have their own contract divisions serving the hotel, restaurant and contract markets and several will have their design teams present on the stands to discuss any upcoming projects.
