The West Coasts’ largest showroom and design center is just around the corner! The Los Angeles Gift & Home Market will start Sunday, September 18 through Tuesday, September 20 and will be attended by buyers from major retailers, specialty boutiques and interior designers from all over the world. They will be shopping from LA’s largest selection of stylish gift, home décor, accessories, children’s and apparel collection at the California Market Center. With this highly anticipated tradeshow approaching, the LA Fashion District paid a visit and scoped out what products will be flying off the shelves this season.
We met with Mickey Lang, President of the California Marketing Associates and his team of sales representatives to learn more about what’s in store for buyers at the show and what makes the LA Gift & Home Market a one-stop-shop.
In the accessories section, Geranium is one of the best-selling products on the floor. The St. Louis based jewelry wholesale line features unique, boho-inspired statement pieces that fashionistas are going to love. The line also keeps its designs fresh and new by changing their merchandise every 6 months.

Another unique product found at the Market is Crystal Manicure Files. They are glass files guaranteed to never wear out or wear down. They shape and file artificial and natural nails and are tempered and hardened for durability and safety. Moreover, they come in a wide variety of cute designs to match your personal style.
We also learned that the LA Gift & Home Market has played an integral role in various notable events. For example, they were partners in a charity program that helped benefit cancer research at USC. They have also worked with event planners for the Golden Globes After Party and the premiere of HBO’s “True Blood”. Other clients of the LA Gift & Home Market include Hallmark stores, hospital gift shops, and interior designers with celebrity clients.
