The Reed Gift Fair in Melbourne this weekend is a boutique affair, very small compared to the major gift fairs this year in Melbourne and Sydney. However, it is a fair well worth attending by Victorian newsagents. I have seen the exhibitor list and it is good – there will be plenty of opportunities for newsagents.
As the first fair of the year, this Melbourne event is a good opportunity to get in early on trends and opportunities with some key suppliers.
If you get to the fair, pass through to the accompanying jewellery fair and see some opportunities in that space for newsagents. It’s the first time the two have been together like this. It’s an opportunity to embrace.
A great little fair that I’ll be attending and an even better excuse to have an overnight trip to Melbourne to take in dinner and Cirque Du Soleil. Yippee! Can’t wait.
Enjoy the show. Looks good!
