Equal attention is given to the customer database. This is a comprehensive listing of the upholstery manufacturing companies, jobbers, furniture retailers and other customers we invite to Showtime.
ITMA provides its members with this list to assist them in scheduling appointments prior to arriving in High Point for the market. On average, exhibitors schedule 70 to 110 appointments for the week. Buyers and exhibitors see Showtime as a professional and cost effective method of viewing fabrics due to our appointment format although "walk-in" interest is certainly encouraged during the show.
During Showtime, opportunities exist for special events, educational forums or seminars. Each provides an excellent opportunity to meet with customers and colleagues.
The media recognizes Showtime's positive impact on the industry. Thus the attention focused on exhibitors and buyers through Showtime coverage has been a tremendous benefit.
Showtime is a registered trademark of the International Textile Market Association.
Twice a year, ITMA brings all segments of the home furnishings industry together, in one place, at one time for Showtime. This internationally acclaimed fabric market, and hosts over 600 buying companies during each event. In order to find out more about Showtime, to register for the next market, or to find out about future dates.
In addition to promoting the growth and development of the home furnishings industry through Showtime, the ITMA underscored its commitment to industry development by creating the ITMA Scholar Program through the Home Furnishings Marketing Program of High Point University in 1993.
