All set for first exhibition at Manchester Gift Fair

REthinkthings are off to Manchester!

This September REthinkthings has plenty of reason to be excited about the Manchester gift show! The Manchester Gift Show is an exciting new national giftware trade event offering a wide variety of gifts, hand crafted products, jewellery, art, ceramics, glass, greetings cards, jewellery, toys, cosmetics, home and fashion accessories. So perfect for us to get involved in. 

We have been busy head hunting a range of new products from the North’s most promising and upcoming designers, now we can't wait to share them in Manchester. Our product range now boasts over 20 carefully selected products ready for either wholesale or retail, we know they'll stand out from the rest and are sure to get a reaction. 

At Manchester, we  will be presenting our six new items. The fun and functional "Five a day" magnetic noticeboard collection and "Nine to Five" clock from York based Jolly Smith, the "Cityscape" bookends from Newcastle based Jonathan Aspinall, the brand new handmade "Bygone" wall clocks from Manchester based SR Designs and the best selling "Cliff" hangers and "Launch" candleholders from Merseyside based Steven Almond. Good timing for these talented northern designers to be partnering with us for a show in the north!

This is the first time we'll show at a trade event in the North and we can't wait to find out who our next clients will be! We usually find ourselves bound by homewares and giftware shows tied to London and the Midlands, so for us this is special, its our home turf and we are hoping for the home advantage! 

We are entering the show with "something fun and functional for everyone", offering free shipping to all on stand purchases for clients to lessen initial investment and giving live product demonstrations of the “Flo” standing and walking aid, the revolutionary new carbon fibre cane that helps you up out of a chair unaided. We hope that this alongside our mission to provide helpful and emotive design led products will really demonstrate how our giftware offering is engaging, inclusive and can be useful to all.

Manchester gift show is conveniently located just outside Manchester at junction 9 & 10 of the M60 at Event City M14 7TB. Opening times are 9.30-6pm Sunday 9th and Monday 10th Sept and 9.30am-5.00pm Tuesday 11th Sept. We will be at stand B15, come along and have a look.
