Buyers
For more than 30 years, the Buyers Market of American Craft has delivered on its promise to present the finest products made by studio artists to qualified buyers. You’ll see American-made beauty, quality, value and variety on display in every aisle.
At the Buyers Market, you’ll meet designers who can deliver:
- Hundreds of new product lines and designs for 2014
- Low minimums on orders
- Products at every price point
- Experience: Our experienced wholesale artists assure you prompt delivery of work that sells
- Exclusivity: Build long-term partnerships that support both the artist and the retailer
- Handmade: Place orders directly with the artist who creates the work—many welcome custom requests
Great value starts with great products offered at every price point.
So come to shop, but stay for the high-quality retailer education programs, networking events and opportunities to meet new and emerging artists – all included in your registration.
You’ll find something for even the most discriminating shopper.
Whether you’re looking to carry products by local artists or nationally recognized master craftsmen, you’ll find them at the Buyers Market. Our artists offer competitive pricing, low minimums on orders and, in many cases, can create custom designs exclusively for your store.
At the show you’ll meet artist-designers who specialize in gold, silver and gemstone jewelry; art for homes and commercial spaces; ceramics and dinnerware; handcrafted handbags, scarves and fashion accessories; sculpture; clocks; tableware; blown glass vases and designer lighting; contemporary art giftware—functional and decorative; and eco-art products made from recycled or sustainable materials.
Our artists have a track record of experience that assures you prompt delivery of work that sells.
As an attending retailer, you’ll find that many artists are willing to provide “exclusivity,” ensuring that the work you order will not show up in another store in your area.
To make your buying experience efficient, the show floor plan is divided into the following categories: Glass, Ceramics, Mixed Media, Wearable Art, Fashion Jewelry, Fine Jewelry, and Premier Jewelry.
Plus, you’ll place orders directly with the artist who creates the work—no middlemen, no mass imports and no manufactured goods. Everything you’ll find at the Buyers Market is made by studio artists in the United States and Canada.
Registration for the 2014 Buyers Market will open on September 2, 2013.
