Exclusively for qualified retail buyers, it offers the opportunity to discover new products, connect with suppliers, and source a curated mix of commercial and handmade goods, including giftware, fashion, food, fine craft, art, textiles, wellness products, and more.

“We are excited about this regional show announcement as it will provide us with much needed additional exposure for our products to buyers in a geographic area that we do not currently have full representation in. A very smart move by CanGift in a very cost-effective way.”
Michael Atkinson, CEO
A&F Souvenir

“This is a vey exciting move by CanGift bringing us closer to buyers in the Maritimes. We finally have an easy and affordable way to expand our business east.”
Ashley Tott, General Manager / VP Sales

“An Atlantic regional buying show approach is a real smart move to bring more buyers and sellers together. After covid, travel changed, and business changed and so this grass roots approach out east is a dynamite idea for a Marketplace.”
Sophie Wilmer
Kitras Art Glass

“The Maritimes is such an untapped market for wholesalers and now this finally gives us an easy and affordable way to make more sales out east and expand our product reach by bringing the markets to the buyers. Buyers can drive to this show from almost everywhere in less than 90 minutes. Very excited to see the results of this show.”
