Source Home & Gift has come to a close! 

And that’s a wrap on Source Home & Gift September 2024! We’ve had an incredible time in The NEC Birmingham, where hundreds of brands and retailers attended the show. Over 250 manufacturers and suppliers from across the globe exhibited, many for the first time. Connections were made, meetings were held, and the entire retail community came together to source responsibly.  

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back again in February 2025, but for now, enjoy our highlights video!

"Source Home & Gift really brings together the suppliers and retailers, and helps everyone understand what that journey is. I’ve wandered around the halls and I’m so impressed by the gifts available – the creativity, the wonderful craftsmanship. I would say to any retailer looking to find something to differentiate themselves from the competition - a trip to Source Home & Gift is absolutely crucial!"

Andrew Goodacre, CEO at British Independent Retailers Association

"Coming to Source Home & Gift is so important to us as we’re always looking to find new and exciting products and meet new suppliers to meet the demand of our customers. It’s really important that we’re trying to be environmentally friendly and that we’re sourcing things that aren’t going to harm the planet. As a charity we’re really part of the green and circular economy – that’s an important part of who we are and our ethos. So to be able to find new suppliers who align with that here is really great."

Lesley Kennedy, Retail Development Manager at RSPCA & Fran Vallely, Shop Manager at RSPCA
