White Plains, NY — The summer edition of the Portland Gift & Accessories Show will shift to a new fall timeframe, to run in conjunction with the annual Portland Cash & Carry Show October 9-11, at the Oregon Convention Center. Western Exhibitors Inc. will resume management responsibility for the fall edition of the Portland Gift & Accessories Show.
Western Exhibitors owned the event until 2005, when the show was purchased by dmg world media. Western Exhibitors continued managing the event on behalf of dmg world media until January 2008. Western Exhibitors has been managing the Portland Cash & Carry Show, on behalf of GLM, a dmg world media business, since 2005.
“Given the existing synergies between these two established events, pairing the Portland Gift & Accessories Show and the Portland Cash & Carry Show will allow us to position the market to maximize third quarter buying and selling opportunities for the Pacific Northwest region,” Chris Gowe, vice president, GLM, said in a statement.
