As a first time exhibitor in the Australian Shoe Fair its exceeded all our expectations. It gave us the vehicle to increase our market share in NSW and also the opportunity to meet with retailers from all over Australia that we would not have met otherwise.

"We were very happy with the results. It was the best Australian Fair we have ever done. It attracted our market of quality buyers and the record number of orders and deliveries we took proved that."
Ben Nothling, Holster Imports
The Fair is a necessity for any serious shoe importer with excellent opportunities for both retailers and suppliers. Sydney was fantastic, brilliant. We wrote lots of orders, picked up new customers and showed a lot of new products that buyers were not aware of.
Steven Westheimer, Sapato Imports
The Sydney Fair was the best ever. We moved over 5,000 pair of shoes. We were so busy we could not keep up with the demand from new business. We picked up 11 new shops from the previous Melbourne Fair.
Brian Davidson, BDA Footwear
We started writing orders on the first day and didn't stop. It was the best Fair we have done.
Paul Waddy, Antoine Stanley
"It was the first time we exhibited in the Australian Shoe Fair. We did not have any expectations, the results really surprised us. We targeted the higher end of the market we opened up accounts with quality retailers and wrote orders. We will take a bigger stand in the next Fair. The Fair gave us the opportunity to launch our range into the market."
