Long Point returns to upholstery’s heartland

Spring Long Point returns to upholstery manufacturing town Long Eaton, Derbyshire, this month, in an earlier timeslot from 29th April to 1st May.

Open from 9am-5pm each day, and comprising 22 exhibitors (Long Eaton Guild members and guests) across seven locations, the show is a valuable sourcing opportunity for buyers of upholstery and cabinet furniture.

This edition will feature two new exhibitors: heritage upholstery brand G Plan, which can be found in Harrington Mill; and Staud Bedroom Furniture, located alongside Hugo Park at The Exchange, Westend Mill.

Following a successful launch at the January Furniture Show, Iain James Furniture will again display pieces from its innovative Rosewood collection, plus a new glass-topped coffee table in burr walnut.

Award-winning bedroom manufacturer, Wiemann, will return to its permanent space in Harrington Mill to present a selection of its latest bedroom collections and innovations, ranging from entry-level to top-quality VIP and semi-solids.

Other exhibitors include Westbridge, Alexander & James, Parker Knoll, Collins & Hayes, Duresta, Gascoigne Designs and John Sankey.

Visitors to this season’s show will have the chance to win an overnight stay for two at Raymond Blanc’s Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons Michelin-starred restaurant and hotel in Oxfordshire. Trade customers can enter by depositing their business card at one or more of the venues (see the brochure on the show website for details), and the winner will be drawn by Maggie Throup MP, chair of the All Party Parliamentary Furniture Industry Group, on 3rd May.

Local courtesy transport to and from the town’s various exhibition venues is also available.
