Manchester Furniture Show
Registration has now opened for the Manchester Furniture Show (MFS), which is making its grand return this July after a 5 year hiatus. MFS is tipped as the industry’s summer sourcing opportunity, having run for 28 years previously, MFS will be relaunching at Manchester Central from the 10-11 July. This year’s show will offer a unique blend of networking, inspiration, and summer sourcing, making the North the furniture industry’s summer meeting place once again.
MFS is perfectly timed for designers looking for fresh inspiration and product choices from over 100 brands including Buoyant Upholstery, BlueBone Imports, Creation Italia/Incanto, Dappr, Final Touches Trading Ltd, Harmony Furnishings, Kennett & Lindsell Ltd, Kettle Home, La-Z-Boy, Lebus Upholstery, Taylors of Scotland, Heritage and many more! Explore a diverse range of products from furniture to lighting to homewares to upholstery - all in one place.
Networking is as much a part of MFS as the sourcing and this year won't disappoint. With the Summer Solstice Show Party on the 10th July, visitors and exhibitors can celebrate MFS’ return in a relaxed setting, perfect for casual networking. Then on the 11th July the Women in Furniture Network will be hosting a Leadership Brunch with a talk from Melinda Whittington, CEO at La-Z-Boy, speaking on her career journey and advice for women in the industry. Both are invaluable opportunities to meet and mingle with the furniture community in an easy, laid back atmosphere.
