Autumn Fair To Champion Sustainability Across The Show

With just six weeks to go until Autumn Fair, (4-7 September, Autumn Fair), this year’s show will be shining a spotlight on sustainability, championing a host of brands which are committed to making positive and impactful changes via a Sustainability Trail, which will run across Home, Gift, Fashion as well as Design & Source.

According to show organisers Hyve Group, an increasing number of visitors to the exhibitor list at www.autumnfair.com are filtering their search by Sustainability and Made in Britain compared to last year, indicating an exponential increase from buyers and retailers for sustainable, locally made, ethically produced and environmentally friendly brands.

“It’s more and more apparent that conscious decisions are the future of retail,”states Autumn Fair’s event director Dan Mayhew. “How materials are sourced, manufacturing processes, waste and packaging are all key considerations for suppliers and retailers. The story behind products is a major consideration when sourcing new ranges/suppliers and is becoming increasingly so for the end consumer too. Our emphasis on the popular Sustainability Trail ensures that brands which have made a commitment to reducing our global impact are highlighted and promoted. We hope that it will continue to encourage visitors to focus on sustainability and inspire more brands to prioritise sustainability in developing new products.”

Adds Dan: “Our Power of One campaign also energises suppliers, retailers and consumers to take small steps to change the world, one decision at a time.”

Autumn Fair will incorporate four key buying destinations, Home, Gift, Moda and Design & Source, with 12 sectors including: Everyday, Home, Living & Décor, Housewares, The Summerhouse, Beauty & Wellbeing, Gift, Greetings & Stationery, Kids, Toys & Play, Footwear, Jewellery & Watch, Womenswear, Fashion accessories and Sourcing.

The show will also feature live speakers and seminars across the four day event.

To get a free copy of the Little Black Book, which gives an exclusive preview of the show, visitors need to register before 5pm on Sunday July 24.
