EXCLUSIVELY PREVIEW
brands from the housewares, tableware, small domestic electricals and gift sectors. “The 2024 edition will be similar to previous years – we will have around 140 exhibitors in a Main Hall and on the Gallery level. Situated off the Gallery is the Trend Showcase and the Brand Showcase. Trend consultant Scarlet Opus supports the Trend Showcase with very popular talks, tours, and displays of the most ‘on-trend’ products, including six ‘best of the best’ products. This is a hugely popular area of the show. The Brand Showcase & Press Gifting Room is dedicated to promoting exhibitors to the British the best of the show to the hugely important area of social media and press. There are a number of strong Housewares brands like Zero Water, Premier Housewares and Museums & Galleries. It is very pleasing to see the strength in depth of the electricals sectors, with new brands such as Morphy Richards, Shark Ninja, Beam Group and Sebo exhibiting in 2024. This is in addition to the existing electricals brands such as Dualit, RKW, Tower, Bluestem Group, Swan Products, Sodastream, Sabichi, Melitta, Lloytron, Eurosonic Group, Burton McCall, Benross Marketing, Black & Decker, Devaney & Co and Vybra Solutions, and the show has a vibrant representation of small electricals brands. Tableware also has a strong proposition alongside existing brands such as Denby, James Martin, Jomafe, Pure Table Top and Sabichi,” says Jones.

A continued growth trajectory across the sector return every year to Exclusively for access to the latest innovations and networking opportunities. Moving forward, growth as Jones adds “The Exclusively brand is extremely well regarded by the industry as being very well organised, delivering a great experience for visitors, and the right buyers to the stands. We are very much a ‘quality over quantity’ show for exhibitors. We vet every applicant and only let trade buyers in. I hear so many times the words, “Exclusively is my favourite show”. The show is very work extremely hard on the detail, visitor databases, a high-quality venue, hospitality, collaboration with exhibitors, travel and hotel accommodation incentives and popular show content such as the brand showcase and trend initiatives.”
