VANCOUVER GIFT EXPO

To further develop export markets for Atlantic Canadian craft producers, Craft Alliance will once again lead our CRAFT: Lab – at the Vancouver Gift Expo, Sept. 2026. This will be a pan-Atlantic mission where Craft Alliance will lead the coordination and development of the project. The project will involve exhibitors from Atlantic Canada looking to expand their sales to Western Canada. The Vancouver Gift Expo is a wholesale trade show produced by Smart Shows Ltd. and held twice a year in Vancouver, BC.

Approximately 6-8 Atlantic Canadian craft producers will be selected to participate in a Showcase at the Vancouver Gift Expo in September 2026.  This project will fill quickly; contact Craft Alliance for instructions to apply.
