logo

What is the best possible use of one of Istanbul’s most iconic buildings?

How about this?  We’re bringing together brilliant British brands and buyers on 5-7 December in the most beautiful rooms in Pera House, the historic British Consulate-General Building in the heart of Istanbul, for a “Winter Wonderland“.

The aim of the Winter Wonderland is to showcase British excellence in lifestyle, jewellery and cosmetics by bringing together twenty five companies with buyers and business people from Turkey and the region.  The event is being sponsored by Laura AshleyDiageo and Funkin Cocktails and supported by the British Chamber of Commerce in Turkey.

Companies exhibiting Christmas and New Year collections at the Winter Wonderland will include Laura Ashley, Mothercare, Marks and Spencer and Accessorize. Items on display will include fashion, cosmetics, giftware, home interiors, houseware, creative design, tableware, toys, and gadgets. If you are a British firm wanting to exhibit,  all the stands are now taken but we are considering whether to hold a similar event next year so let us know if you’re interested! Buyers, distributors, business people and UK Trade and Investment experts will attend from Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and other countries in the region.

This trade show is open only to invited business contacts.  If you are a British or Turkish business keen to attend please contact Guliz Kiymaz (Guliz.kiymaz@fco.gov.uk )   Should be an excellent event..
