Three advantages of exhibiting
1. Strong buyer interest for international design trends
Over 16,500 visitors at Interior Lifestyle Tokyo are highly responsive towards design, and eager to explore premium products and trends from overseas. International trend seminars also attract prominent buyers every year, and remain an important avenue for influencing local industry trendsetters.
2. Expand your sales channels with Japanese retailers
Retailers constitute the highest percentage of visitors at the show. This diverse group ranges from lifestyle shops and major department stores to specialty stores, dealing in furniture, stationery, gifts, and more.
3. Connect with buyers from the contract sector
