Spring Fair partnered with Modern Retail for the first Good Retail Awards at Spring Fair 2020. The awards focused on retailers leading the way in the industry with positive innovations that benefited both retailers and their customers.

We can't believe Spring Fair was over a month ago! That however has not stopped us thinking about all the new and diverse range of exhibitors and products on display across the 2020 offering.

What a show! There was so much to explore at the all-new Spring Fair. From the most inspiring, new products to immersive trend installations and stand-out content.

Since it's International Women's Day this weekend, we are celebrating some of the incredible women who make Spring and Autumn Fair what it is.

In 1993 when Oliver Bonas first opened its doors, the independent British lifestyle store sold imported watches and fashion accessories. A lot has changed in the more than 25 years that they've served our high streets, and a big part of that has been the hiring of their first ever designer, Molly Park.

Up and down the country, independent retailers play a key role in supporting local communities, each with an individual story to tell. Based in the small town of Marple in Greater Manchester, community is key to Marple Stationery Supplies' identity and this is embodied by self-proclaimed “stationery addict” and owner Sarah Laker.
