Made in Britain member The Leather Satchel Co is joining dozens of British manufacturers and designers at Source British, a new US trade show dedicated exclusively to British brands. Taking place 13-14 March 2017 at the California Market Center (CMC) during L.A. Fashion Market, the West Coast’s premier trade show, it’s the perfect showcase for brands looking to access the US market.
“We're massively optimistic about this opportunity to be amongst the first British businesses heading to the US in this new era," said Keith Hanshaw of The Leather Stachel Co. "We will be proudly displaying the Made in Britain marque to remind US buyers that every satchel is hand made in Liverpool and that manufacturing in the UK is really thriving. We’ve got a very strong story and the marque helps us tell it.”
Joanne Lee, Senior Vice President of Tradeshows & Marketing at the CMC, commented: "Source British will join our established shows helping to further position the CMC as a prominent destination for premier fashion and lifestyle brands in Los Angeles. British design and craftsmanship have long been revered by US buyers. With Source British, West Coast buyers are being offered the extraordinary opportunity to explore Britain's top brands in one convenient LA Market trip."
