Shopping Tips

Get the most out of Toronto international gift fair by:

  1. Plan ahead. Come prepared with knowledge of your store inventory, your current and upcoming needs, percentage of dollars you want to allocate to each category and your sales projections.
  2. Use our online Exhibitor Search to make a list of booths you want to visit.
  3. Have the proper credentials to register, i.e., personal identification, personalized business cards, a copy of your resale tax certificate, copies of credit references (at least three to five).
  4. Know your vendors. Do they have a rep in your area? Are there Fair specials? Are their products priced at wholesale? Do they have a dating program? Do they offer volume discounts? Do they provide free freight? Do they have a co-op advertising program?
  5. Don't try to do it all in one day - take your time to visit each show division. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes.
