OFFPRICE Announces the launch of A TASTE OF OFFPRICE at the LA Majors Market on October 4-6 this year. There is a lot of news already coming down for this event as dealers get ready for a huge opportunity to see and be seen by the biggest names in the industry. It’s with great anticipation and pleasure that the OFFPRICE Show announces the expansion of its TASTE OF OFFPRICE concept to the west coast. For those who don’t know, the result will be bringing what started as a New York Market Week event to the LA Majors Market in October 2010.

These shows have been done before, but never in such optimal venues like the ones that are done in New York and Los Angeles now, with the “TASTE” show exploding onto the scene from Gotham Hall, which is located in the heart of New York’s garment district, and the LA version of the show with the same theme making its debut in Los Angeles. There expected to be a huge reaction to the show, since it’s being held at the Exhibit Hall of the California Market Center, where the Majors Market takes place as well.

It should be noted that with the New York “TASTE” show being held in Gotham Hall, visitors will not be further than 3 blocks away from the center of the wholesale universe, and won’t require any extra cab fare to simply walk and find other great values for the Spring and Summer seasons, as well as Fall and Back-to-School fashions.

With vendors already recognizing the untapped potential in these key markets, buyers who are familiar with the trade will appreciate the extra vote of confidence suppliers bring from the expansion of OFFPRICE beyond the semi-annual Las Vegas Fashion Week. This is a great way to remind everyone of the availability of various products from the off price market.

Reactions to the new launch from the multitudes of jobbers and retailers who have been made aware of this event has been extremely positive.

“It’s wonderful news,” said Paul Maya, President of S. Maya & Sons.  “I’m excited.  It’s the right place, the right time, with the right people.  It seems that the Off Price Show is on a very big roll.”

Marsha Gronfein of B. Bronson calls the new TASTE in LA “a real opportunity to get new customers.”

“It’s pretty cool having OFFPRICE at the LA Majors Market,” was the reaction from Susie’s Deals buyer Mindy Hyman.  “Less travel ultimately spells better values for us.”

“I’m looking forward to it,” said Joni Dahan of Sapman Sports.  “LA needs it.  There is more of a demand for off price and the ‘Cal Mart’ in October is the perfect setting.”

A TASTE OF OFF PRICE in Los Angeles will take place on October 4 – 6 at the Exhibit Hall of California Market Center.
