  • (1888PressRelease) September 08, 2010 - Bangkok, Thailand - Since 2001, the Bangkok International Gift Fair and Bangkok International Houseware Fair (better known as BIG+BIH 2010) has been held twice a year in April and October. A presence at this October's show has already been confirmed by more than 600 companies from around the region that will be displaying their innovative and inspired furniture and home décor, artificial plants and flowers, handicrafts, spa products, textiles, toys and stationery at the 40,000m2 exhibition hall. Ninety thousand visitors are expected to attend the only all-ASEAN showcase of the best of the region's lifestyle products over the four trade days of October 19-22 and two public days of October 23-24.

    The global economy has presented problems that have required some creative solutions. "It doesn't matter if the economy is up or down - we still innovate. We're not mass-producers," commented Ms. Duangjai Koosrivinij, Director of Thai Lifestyle Product Federation and President of the Thai Toy Industry Association.

    "The really big manufacturers in China and other mass-production-based countries have suffered enormously from the economy," said Mr. Somchai Thanapolkiat, Director of the Thai Lifestyle Product Federation and President of the Thai Design & Objects Association. "But we haven't been affected that much because we're smaller, which allows us to be nimble and flexible and adapt very quickly - so come to the show and let our quality speak for itself."

    Everyone involved is working to assure that visitors are amply rewarded for the trip. For example, the venue for BIG+BIH has been moved to Bangkok International Trade and Exhibition Centre (BITEC), a high-tech, ultra-modern convention facility that is much closer to the city center than the previous site and just a 15-20 minute drive from the new International airport. On arrival, dedicated VIP immigration lanes for BIG+BIH participants will free them from having to queue up with other travelers, and shuttle buses will take them to their hotels or to BITEC with its comfortable Buyers Lounge complete with translators. As everyone who has visited the country knows, the Thais are as hospitable as they are creative.

    Moreover, the Federation which is supported by the Thailand Convention and Exhibition Bureau will be giving away fabulous incentives to buyers who pre-register at the Federation's website which is www.bigandbihfair.com.
    These items include fully paid trips to magnificent destinations such as Samui and Pattaya, as well as complimentary hotel rooms at two of Bangkok's most luxurious 5 star hotels and much more.
