Souvenirs, Gifts, Folk Art, Fashion & Accessories Trade Fair Corfu

The “Souvenirs, Gifts, Folk Art, Fashion & Accessories Trade Fair” (SGFAF) is a specialized trade fair that serves as a vibrant meeting point between tradition, tourism, and commerce. Held annually on the island of Corfu, the event takes place at the prestigious Corfu Holiday Palace—a historic venue offering breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea. The fair is organized by Alfa Expo GP, an experienced trade show organizer with a strong focus on regional markets and their connection to international trends.

The acronym SGFAF reflects the fair’s core themes: souvenirs, gifts, folk art, fashion, and accessories. This distinctive combination appeals not only to retailers but also to creatives, tourism professionals, and wholesale buyers. Each year, exhibitors and trade visitors from retail, wholesale, tourism, museum shops, and the fashion industry gather to explore the diversity and authenticity of Greek product culture.

At the heart of SGFAF are products with a strong cultural identity—ranging from handcrafted statues, religious ornaments, and traditional Cretan knives to cosmetics, embroidery, sandals, beachwear, regional foods, and cannabis-related items. The offerings are complemented by digital printing solutions, travel guides, postcards, promotional materials, silver and gold jewelry, and fashion accessories. Folk art plays a particularly important role, giving the fair the character of a showcase for Greek artisanal tradition while also inspiring modern design.

A highlight of the event is the presentation of exclusive, locally inspired items such as shell-themed jewelry, natural sea sponges, and kompoloi (worry beads)—symbols of Greek lifestyle that captivate both visitors and buyers alike.

Exhibitors represent a broad spectrum of industries, from traditional craft businesses and tourism service providers to international trading agencies. The primary audience includes buyers, retailers, hotel and shop owners, and museum shop curators from Greece and abroad, all seeking unique products for their clientele.

SGFAF is part of a nationwide series of trade fairs organized by Alfa Expo GP, with additional events held in other key tourist destinations across Greece. What sets the Corfu edition apart is its close connection to international tourism and the island’s cultural identity—making it a place where tradition and contemporary style converge in a unique way.

The venue, Corfu Holiday Palace, stands out not only for its capacity and infrastructure but also for its central location near Corfu Town. Its excellent accessibility via Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport and well-developed transport links make the SGFAF not just a platform for business, but a trade fair experience set against the backdrop of one of Greece’s most beautiful locations.

The Souvenirs, Gifts, Folk Art, Fashion & Accessories Trade Fair will take place on 3 days from Friday, 27. February to Sunday, 01. March 2026 in Corfu.
