Assess current inventory to know what sells well, what you need and where you want to expand. Be sure to check what’s on order so you ensure that your time at Market is spent sourcing effectively. Plan to buy what you need 6-12 months from Market.

Organize by category to help you prioritize categories for efficient sourcing. Market offers cross-category sourcing and you may get sidetracked with all of the options.

Set a budget to help you shop wisely. Make sure you have a set spending limit and understanding of the amount of dollars and/or units available. Otherwise, it’s easy to get carried away.

Come with your credit information (e.g. retail license, state tax number) so you can write orders seamlessly.

Make your Market Plan — a tool available to pre-registered buyers — to browse exhibitors, scout product, make a personal shopping list. Market Plan is available online or in our App.

Ask about Show Specials Many exhibitors offer deals only available during Market to attendees, so ask the sales rep how you can access those.
