Taking place at the Sandton Convention Centre from 28-31 July 2022, Decorex Joburg is attracting a high level of attendance from both local and international trade guests. An inward trade mission will see 15 guests from 6 African countries attending the show at the invitation of the Decorex Africa portfolio and RX Africa, the organizers of the event. Due to Decorex Joburg’s substantial professional database, there are thousands of local trade professionals who have registered to attend the show thus far, with registrations closing just shy of the event opening its doors.

The aim of the trade programme is to stimulate the local economy by facilitating access to exhibitors. “Matchmaking” sessions are available and set up at the request of trade guests.

The international visitors who are part of the inward trade mission have been specially selected by the organisers. They demonstrate  a high level of interest in sourcing local products and services and are attracted by the fact that Decorex Joburg is THE “must-see” of the country’s leading designers and service and solutions providers.

In addition to its international cohort of buyers, the Decorex Africa portfolio runs a robust trade programme for local professionals. The trade programme is complimentary for all vetted and approved members of trade who register online to attend. Decision makers in the following industries qualify for participation: Retailers, Interior Designers, Decorators, Architects, Specifiers, Facility Managers, Spatial Planners, Hospitality Buyers, Corporate Procurement and Property Developers.

Members of the trade may attend the show for free across all the days of the event. Once they are accredited as professionals, they will receive trade accreditation passes that will allow exhibitors to identify them.

The show first opens on Thursday, 28 July and both the Thursday and Friday, 29 July are earmarked as targeted trade days. The show is also open over the weekend to accommodate those trade guests who cannot come through during the week. Members of the public are welcome during any of the show opening times, and there is much to see, source and procure, whether you’re a professional or otherwise.
