Las Vegas Market Focused on Buyer Engagement & Increased Sourcing

With more than 3,500 product lines – including both permanent showrooms and temporary exhibits – the Las Vegas Market summer edition reported strong buyer engagement and increased sourcing for buyers across the bedding, gift, home furnishings, and lifestyle industries.

“Las Vegas Market plays a critical role in shaping how our industry connects, grows and adapts,” said Jon Pertchik, ANDMORE® CEO. “It’s not just about sourcing; it’s about creating the conditions for innovation, partnership and long-term success. At ANDMORE, we’re investing in brands, experiences and relationships that help our customers thrive and ensure this marketplace remains essential to the future of retail and design.”

Las Vegas Market’s location continued to attract a broad audience from the West Coast with its mix of established brands and emerging resources.

Throughout the campus, showrooms reported a week of newly formed connections and quality order writing across categories. In the gift and home décor space, Heidi Haneckow, HomArt sales manager, noted, “While overall traffic felt more relaxed, Las Vegas Market was a great success for us this season. We had strong order writing, meaningful conversations and plenty of connection with both new and familiar faces. Las Vegas always brings a unique energy and creative spark that makes it such an inspiring place to show.”

Following a highly anticipated multi-brand showroom launch between Surya, Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams and Global Views, Mitchell Gold offered insight on the value of markets and collaboration within the home furnishings industry.

In temporary presentations, The Gift & Home Temporaries in the Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas hosted some 450 brands to bring awareness to a number of budding names in the industry. New exhibitors identified a strong community within the temporaries and enthusiasm from buyers as a key highlight of a successful week.

The Gift & Home Temporaries in the Expo joined the Home Furnishings Temporaries, located in Building B, Floor 6, to offer multi-category discovery across the campus.

Las Vegas Market’s programming and celebrations were another draw. Amidst the global economic uncertainty that continues to impact the retail and design industries, ANDMORE is actively working to support its community in navigating the evolving tariff landscape through expert-led programming, ongoing industry dialogue and a tariff action plan.

As Las Vegas Market continues to cater to diverse categories, ANDMORE is investing in fresh avenues to extend market value year-round, energize industry conversations and support next-gen talent.

One of the upcoming highlights is The Market Makers Podcast – launching September 2025 – in which The Market Makers will feature candid conversations with retail and design leaders on trends, business strategy and what’s next in the industry.

In addition, the Vacation Rental Design Summit will be held at Las Vegas Market in January,  bringing the fast-growing short-term rental design sector into the fold for its first West Coast U.S. edition.

ANDMORE x UNLV College of Fine Arts has also entered into a new partnership that establishes an ongoing platform for student and faculty artwork and design to be showcased onsite, fostering community connections and supporting university fundraising initiatives.

The winter 2026 Las Vegas Market runs Sunday, January 25 – Thursday, January 29, 2026, at World Market Center Las Vegas.
