ith the unique, comprehensive format of the New York International Gift Fair® (NYIGF®) – and the collaborative efforts of the permanent showroom buildings Forty One Madison, 7 W New York and 230 Fifth Avenue – the NY Market is a “must attend” for all retailers. Designed to offer visitors a greater number of buying resources, educational opportunities and special events – while celebrating the verve and vitality of its host city – the winter 2011 NY Market will run Friday, January 28, through Thursday, February 3, 2011. As the nation’s premier gift, home and lifestyle marketplace, the NYIGF features 2,800 exhibiting companies that showcase an extraordinary breadth and depth of design-driven home fashion products and complementary giftware. Some 35,000 attendees from all 50 states and more than 85 countries worldwide are expected at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center and Passenger Ship Terminal Piers 92 and 94. Vast and impressive, NYIGF is unsurpassed among U.S. home and gift markets in terms of volume, style a nd sophistication.

Expanding Showrooms, Special NY Experience Await Buyers at 230 Fifth Avenue WITH A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF ITS DISTINCTIVE SHOWROOMS expanding rapidly and tenants reporting strong market performances, 230 Fifth Avenue is energized for the upcoming 2011 market season. Located in the heart of New York’s trendy Flatiron District, 230 Fifth Avenue offers a dazzling, upscale mix of merchandise, housed in its 20 floors of showrooms. This merchandise encompasses a wealth of luxury home products, with a

captivating and complementary blend of home textiles, gifts, tabletop, kitchen items, housewares, stationery, books, furniture, art, holiday, toys and architectural products. One of the special attractions at 230 Fifth Avenue is its renowned 19th floor, home to a number of high-end linen collections. One of its anchors is Yves Delorme, which continues to showcase the very best in

products from France. Another wellknown tenant, Lawrence Essentials, with its unique resin collection, reports robust business this year, as do other 230 Fifth Avenue showrooms. “Our tenants are impressed with the fact that important buyers are visiting them during the shows, and that they consider their market experiences amazing,” says Creative Marketing Director Matthew Aloisi. “This encourages the exhibitors to spend more money enhancing their presentations with more square footage.” Determined to offer visitors “a story from the time they walk in until the time they leave,” Aloisi works hard to make the 230 Fifth Avenue experience one to remember. “Every show, no matter how big or small, offers the same special features and amenities,” he explains. These include free transportation, valuable giveaways such as tote bags and umbrellas, vouchers for free breakfast and lunch, chocolate treats, free massage services, and a number of great dining options. From 4 p.m. to 4 a.m., the 230 Fifth Rooftop Lounge & Restaurant offers a flavorful Malaysian menu and cocktails, with no reservations necessary. Seating options include an enclosed lounge surrounded by couches and cocktail tables or the famed heated rooftop garden, where guests can enjoy 360-degree views of the skyline. Located in the rear lobby, the Antique Café offers baked goods, meals, desserts and Wi-Fi Internet connection. The Buyer’s Lounge, with restful seating, trade publications and Wi-Fi access, is slated for renovation over the next few months. “In this economy, when people may not be spending as much, it’s not just about business,” Aloisi contends. “We must strive to give them an experience each time they visit our building.” Trade Show Schedule for 2011* NY Gift Show & Home Saturday, Jan. 29 Textiles Market Week® Thursday, Feb.3 Toy Show Sunday, Feb. 13 Wednesday, Feb. 16 NY Home Fashions Monday, March 14 Market Friday, March 18 NY Tabletop Show Tuesday, April 12 Friday, April 15 Stationery Show Sunday, May 15 Wed., May 18 BookExpo America Tuesday, May 24 (BEA) Thursday, May 26 NY Gift Show & Home Saturday, Aug. 13 Textiles Market Week® Thursday, Aug.18 General Merchandise Monday, Sept. 12 Show Wed., Sept. 14 NY Home Fashions Monday, Sept. 12 Market Friday, Sept. 16 NY Tabletop Show Tuesday, October 25 Friday, Oct.28 *All trade show dates are subject to change.
