New Buyer Show Floor Tours
Whether you're new to the fashion retail trade, or an experienced buyer attending the Off Price Show for the first time, covering 100,000 square feet (i.e. 1,000 booths) with over 450 vendors can be pretty overwhelming.
If you fit in either of these categories, we highly recommend our FREE Buyer Tours. The tours are hosted by buyer David Abbate from Lady Rose Shops in New York, who has been attending the Off Price Show since its inception in 1995.
David is a serious advocate for educating retail buyers on how to shop the Off Price Show and market. His reputation in the Off Price community precedes itself, so much so that some exhibitors have allowed "David's entourage" of new buyers to witness million-dollar deals firsthand.
The tours take place at 9:00 AM and 11:00 AM on the first three days of the show. The tours typically last less than an hour, and David is very generous with his time for questions before and after the tour.
