Best trade shows to attend

Re: [spiers] Best trade shows to attend

The San Francisco International gift mart has two big shows a year and they
are quite extensive. It takes more than a day to see the whole thing. As
far as selling the attendance list I do not believe they do, however most of
the reps will want your business card befor they will give you a catalog. I
have not been contacted by anyone that I did not give my card to. There is
also a trade show in Los Angeles, Houston, New York and Atlanta all of these
are pretty much the same vendors with some exceptions. I have been told
that there is also a big wholesale craft shgow in San Francisco but I have
not gotten the info on it as of yet.

Hi,

Does anyone have a list of the best trade shows to attend for gifts, arts &
crafts, and housewares? The ones that most buyers will attend? Tradeshow
contact information?

Can someone also share their experience in these tradeshows?

Do these trade shows sell the buyers attendance list and contact info?

Thanks,
-don
