ATLANTA / LAS VEGAS -- ANDMORE hosts some 20+ buying groups and trade associations for shopping, networking and education this winter at its Atlanta Market (Jan. 14-20, 2025, at AmericasMart Atlanta) and Las Vegas Market (January 26-30, 2025, at World Market Center Las Vegas) with industry partners providing onsite activities for member-based organizations.

"ANDMORE’s buying events provide an exceptional opportunity for key industry groups and buying organizations to connect and interact with members and non-members alike," said Dorothy Belshaw, ANDMORE president. "Market week will be an essential center for product discovery, networking and shared support, and we look forward to connecting with our valued industry partners."

Rooted in Retail, a podcast and marketing solutions platform dedicated to retail success, makes its Atlanta Market and Las Vegas Market debuts this winter.

"There's nothing like the power of being in person at Market! It’s an amazing opportunity for retailers to connect, discover new product and recharge with fresh inspiration for the year ahead,” said Crystal Vilkaitis, founder of Rooted in Retail. “I’m thrilled to be a part of the action, hosting live Rooted in Retail podcast recordings at Atlanta Market and a meet-and-greet in Las Vegas. I can’t wait to hear about retailers’ 2025 plans and have some incredible conversations!"
