Shoppe Object New York New York City

Shoppe Object New York is one of the most influential trade shows in the United States for contemporary design, responsible production, and trend-setting lifestyle products. Held annually, it has become a staple in the trade fair calendar and takes place at the iconic Starrett-Lehigh Building in New York City's Chelsea neighborhood—a hub for design, creativity, and cultural innovation.

The event is organized by IMC Manager, LLC, a leading provider in the premium market segment, renowned for its high-quality platforms where retailers, designers, and brands from around the world come together. Shoppe Object is far from a conventional trade fair: it is tailored to the high-end retail, interior design, and fashion industries, and stands out with its carefully curated selection of premium products. What defines its unique profile is the seamless blend of aesthetic excellence and social responsibility—highlighting thoughtfully designed, sustainable collections with style.

The range of offerings spans from contemporary design and artisanal craftsmanship to ethically produced fashion. Exhibitors present exclusive home accessories, furniture, lighting, art objects, kitchenware, tableware, jewelry, bags, and textiles—products with character and story, shaped by artisanal skill, innovative spirit, and cultural depth. Sustainability plays a central role: an increasing number of exhibitors prioritize fair supply chains, recycled materials, and ethical production standards.

The trade audience includes international buyers from retail, design studios, concept stores, boutiques, and premium interior design firms. Representatives from department stores, galleries, and e-commerce platforms also use the show to curate their product assortments. Exhibitors represent a wide spectrum—from traditional manufacturers and established design labels to emerging creatives and start-ups.

Although rooted in New York, Shoppe Object is part of a broader network within IMC’s event landscape across North America. While it belongs to a growing portfolio of design and lifestyle fairs, it stands out with its distinct identity and strong curatorial focus.

Shoppe Object’s connection to New York extends far beyond its location. The show reflects the city’s creative energy, cultural diversity, and avant-garde spirit—qualities for which the metropolis is celebrated around the world.

The venue—the Starrett-Lehigh Building—is an architectural landmark with industrial charm. Located in the heart of the Design District, it offers an inspiring backdrop. It is well connected to public transportation and within walking distance of Hudson Yards, the High Line Park, and numerous galleries.

The Shoppe Object New York will take place on 3 days from Sunday, 03. August to Tuesday, 05. August 2025 in New York City.
