Russell Rule, Show Director comments “With the show dominating the whole of Olympia London buyers will have access to over 650 brands and 1000’s of the newest products on the market, at one safe and carefully designed event. The S/S edition of Top Drawer returns for the first time since 2020 and myself and the team are excited to welcome our loyal customers back through the doors.”


After visiting the A/W21 edition, Charlotte Eccless, Owner of Raffia Store commented ‘’What an utter joy of a show it was! Seeing so many happy faces in the flesh, conversing with brands without the help of an app, and selecting products without clicking a button was, quite honestly, a great (and perhaps overdue) reminder of why I love my job and the industry I work in.’’
 
Exhibitors were also delighted to be back at Olympia, with Victoria Whitbread from Designed In Colour noting, ‘’Top Drawer Autumn and Spring are the most important Trade shows in our calendar.  No other exhibition in the UK generates such high calibre customers; sourcing for their stores and connecting with us the suppliers.’’
