RETURNING FEBRUARY 2013!

In February 2013, the Alberta Gift Show is offering retailers three completely different buying experiences: the Alberta Gift Show, By Hand (Canada's Artisan Gift Show) and TRIPS West. Introduced in Toronto in 2004, TRIPS was moved to Vancouver in 2009 to support Canada's Olympic venue and was renamed TRIPS West. The TRIPS West show is designed as an annual market to allow exhibitors who cater to the tourist and resort industry the opportunity to focus their resources on one major event each year, specifically designed for their categories. The right buyers will now be able to source the products they need more efficiently, which will allow exhibitors more time with each buyer.

What sort of retailers will be attending TRIPS West?

Retailers representing resorts, tourist attractions, seasonal businesses, resort souvenir shops, galleries and museums and gift stores across Canada. This show will allow buyers the opportunity to come to one targeted event each February which will be focused on offering products designed especially for them.

Who will be exhibiting at the show?

If you are a wholesaler, importer or manufacturer of tourist, resort and imprinted products including: apparel, Canadian handcrafted items, First Nations art, museum products, resort wear, tourist sundries, souvenirs and specialty foods, TRIPS West is the only show you need to participate in.
