Autumn Fair will once again champion the ‘Best of British’ with a diverse array of brands showcasing locally manufactured, sustainable and design-led products
The event, taking place at NEC Birmingham, from September 7-10, presents an exciting opportunity for retailers to source products with provenance, purpose and personality.
Soraya Gadelrab, event director, Autumn Fair said: “This year’s showcase is defined by a powerful British line-up celebrating both heritage and cutting-edge innovation, with a stellar roster of brands. Supporting UK-made products has never been more important. At Autumn Fair we’re proud to provide a platform for British brands that combine quality craftsmanship with sustainable, story-led design across gift, fashion, beauty, wellness, and home decor. For retailers, sourcing products that are made closer to home not only helps reduce environmental impact but also taps into customer demand for authenticity, provenance, and a deeper connection with the items they buy. Championing British-made means championing innovation, community, and the future of our high streets.”
