The London Stationery Show is now only two weeks away and is ready to unite buyers and brands from around the globe for a full celebration of creativity, dynamism and innovation
Taking place between the 16 – 17 May at the Business Design Centre, the show promises to be a one-stop-shop for stationery professionals looking to source the latest product offerings, discover new suppliers, gain valuable business insight and get a sneak peek at the stationery trends set to skyrocket from both leading manufacturers and newer names on the block.
“We’re so excited to unite the stationery industry once again this spring,” said Alex Butler, event director. “Whether you’re just starting out in the sector, or returning as a seasoned stationery professional, there truly is something for everyone.
“Set in the UK capital, we’ve created a professional buying environment like no other: offering a unique opportunity to learn, network and get inspired. Hosting world-renowned exhibitors alongside six fantastic feature areas, we’re ready to help you reinvigorate your stationery edit.”
The two action-packed days at London Stationery Show offer a full celebration of creativity, diversity and craftsmanship, as over 200 of the biggest, boldest and best brands unveil their latest products.

But it’s not solely a buying event: being able to explore the latest trends sweeping the sector is also important for visitors, so alongside the handpicked selection of exhibitors, the event will hold live Creative Matters Workshops.
