“Whether you’re a gift shop owner looking for trends and inventory, a furniture retailer restocking your floor or an interior designer managing residential and commercial projects, Las Vegas Market provided something for every buyer,” said Jon Pertchik, ANDMORE^SM CEO. “Las Vegas was a testament to the power of optimism, unity and rebound across the industries that we serve.”

The Winter 2025 edition of Las Vegas Market served four key industries – bedding, furniture, gift and home décor – with each category citing notable resource gains to satisfy every buyer. Retailers and designers from all 50 states and more than 60 countries found refreshed product and experiential programming to be just a few of the best features of the buying event.  

Delia Chatwin of The Lifestyle Collective in Orem, UT, noted, “We’ve noticed a unique energy at this Market – between the live music, organic conversations and parties, there’s an unmistakable liveliness here.” 

Onsite education offered business insights and trendspotting tips throughout Market week. Highlights included a Create & Cultivate Business Bootcamp, engaging business owners on entrepreneurship and building a community and an American Society of Interior Designers (ASID) standing-room-only seminar, The Future of Interior Design: Unveiling ASID’s 2025 Key Trends, signaling a growing interest in valuable industry research.  

“We were delighted by the overwhelmingly enthusiastic response to our trend conversation at Las Vegas Market,” said Lindsey Koren, ASID communications director. “Being able to bring the right voices together in a crowded room to explore shifts in lifestyles, work and societal trends is a true testament to the power of collaboration and trailblazing research.” 

Many of Las Vegas Market’s more than 3,500 exhibitors discovered a renewed sense of optimism as sales and new accounts permeated the Winter Market.  

Celebrating its debut in Las Vegas Market, Rock House Farm Designer Brands – including Century; Hancock and Moore; Hickory Chair; Highland House; Jessica Charles; and Maitland Smith – cited an abundant Winter Market with the opportunity to get in front of clients never-before-seen.  

“Our first Las Vegas Market was marked by strong traffic full of retailers and designers who’d never visited one of our showrooms before,” said Alex Shuford, RHF Investments CEO. “Having a year-round presence in Las Vegas will put us in significantly more western design projects.”

As THE national bedding market in the United States, E.S. Kluft & Company identified Las Vegas Market as a key event in maintaining its business. Magali Castillo, VP marketing, said, “Las Vegas Market is a critical show for us. We see customers from all over the world here, and 2025 is already looking positive. Las Vegas really is the reference for the entire bedding industry.”

As an extension of the market experience, ANDMORE launched a United for California fundraising campaign during its Winter markets. In partnership with Gift for Life, the initiative supports World Central Kitchen’s crisis-related hunger relief for California wildfire first responders and affected communities. The campaign has raised nearly $30,000 to date and will continue into ANDMORE’s February Apparel Markets. To learn more or donate, visit www.ANDMORE.com/CaliforniaWildfireRelief.

In addition to robust gift and home resources, Summer Market will also feature the first co-location of *Noted: The Greeting Card Expo as well as industry award events across furniture, bedding and stationery.
