Attend the 6th annual New York International Carpet Show: September 12-14, 2010
The NEW YORK INTERNATIONAL CARPET SHOW is the annual Fall market trade event that everyone in the industry is talking about! NYICS is a distinctive marketplace for the best contemporary and traditional decorative carpets. But it's more than a trade show. It is a showcase for the most current and innovative products by visionary artisan weavers...new introductions, creative collections, strong programs and must-have one-of-a-kinds.
Trade shows take on a renewed importance in this economic environment and can be a huge time and money saver for exhibitors and buyers alike. Does your business depend on finding reliable sources of high quality carpets that sell in a tight marketplace...or buying higher-profit, design-driven carpets at value prices for your customers?
NYICS is the only trade show in the US dedicated exclusively to high-end, artisan level carpets. And it is held at the very beginning of the all-important Fall buying season, so you can get first dibs on the best products for boosting your fourth-quarter sales.
NYICS means business...your business!
When like-minded people meet, good things happen and business is done.
This year, we open on Sunday morning, September 12th, and close Tuesday evening, September 14th.
Show hours are 9am -- 6pm each day.

The past two decades have seen a marked increase in consumer awareness and appreciation of the value and beauty of authentic, handmade carpets. This has spurred growth in an ancient industry that is increasingly guided by demands of the modern market. Talented artists create portfolios of carpet designs and manufacturers ensure that they are carefully made by skilled and dedicated weavers, using the best materials for long-term durability and value. From this seemingly limitless variety, our exhibitors carefully select only the best examples to present to their valued customers.
The New York International Carpet Show is an exclusive trade venue for established and qualified importers who have permanent businesses in North America and Europe to serve their buyers.
