The organiser of the Spring Furniture & Bed Show is delighted to announce the return of the popular exhibition, taking place from 20th–21st May in its new home, Telford International Centre.
“Reflecting strong industry demand, exhibition stands are now almost completely sold out,” the organiser begins, “setting the scene for what promises to be an exceptional trade event. Visitors can look forward to valuable networking opportunities, exclusive market insights, and access to some of the UK’s leading furniture and bed suppliers.”
Show consultant Roy Beagent comments: “Our 2025 spring show encapsulates decades of dedication to quality, innovation and industry collaboration. We’ve designed this event not only to honour our heritage, but to empower retailers and industry stakeholders with the insights and tools they need to succeed in the years ahead.”
David Wescombe, brand director at exhibitor Relyon Beds, adds: “As an approved supplier, we really value the spring show as an opportunity to meet with customers, share new product ideas, and explore emerging trends. I’d actively encourage any supplier or retailer to attend and experience the benefits that come from connecting in such a focused and collaborative environment.”
