Discovering new brands has never been easier, and retailers can log on whenever they want, wherever they want.
Going Beyond the Traditional B2B Experience
Informa Markets Fashion and wholesale ecommerce platform NuORDER have partnered to launch the industry’s largest digital trade show, debuting September 1st at 9am. This event was built to go beyond the transactional of traditional B2B wholesale commerce and now, for the first time, retailers and buyers can shop from brands from New York and Las Vegas at the same event.
Navigating the Digital Marketplaces
Those who are registered will receive an email on September 1st once the event goes live which will contain the link to the digital trade show. Each digital marketplace is merchandised by product segments, creating discovery journeys using shopping prompts and cues for a more efficient shopping experience. Each marketplace will be frequently updated with refreshed content for better brand and product discovery.
Each digital merchandise is fully shoppable, with different brand offerings and contact pages to place orders with brands directly through the site. Whether you’re looking for footwear, contemporary women’s fashion, or children’s wear, retailers are able to shop different brands through each digital marketplace at their leisure throughout the entire eight-week period.
Educational Experiences
Each digital marketplace will also have separate sections for brand and product discovery via trend and category-driven editorial roundups, including specialty curations by fashion staff and tastemakers. Community insights for each marketplace include fashion innovators, disruptors, brand makers, and lead designers featured in behind-the-brand Q&A’s and videos meant to ignite progressive creativity and drive brand discovery.
The content will be highly visible and directly shoppable from each editorial feature, directing attendees to new products available to their respective brand in all of the marketplaces. This makes for a much more efficient shopping experience than ever before, as well as educational content for each brand. This content will also be constantly refreshed each week on an ongoing basis, so retailers can keep checking back for new discoveries.
