INTERIORS, HOME B2B & FURNITURE – IHF INDIA is not just another mega-event. It aims to be a catalyst for all stakeholders in the architecture, interior design, decor, furniture, building & construction, premium home products, and ancillary industries (Pools, Baths, Spas, Exteriors, Swadeshi, etc.). This grand showcase actively promotes “Made-in-India” products and services, with a special focus on MSMEs, particularly those owned by SC/STs/OBCs, Women, and entities from Maharashtra, offering them special booth rates. This initiative receives support from both Central and State Government agencies.

IHF INDIA is a joint initiative, part of the INDIA@100 launch by the Trinity Group (celebrating 25 years and holders of 3 Guinness World Records) in association with the Chamber for Import, Export, Traditional & Integrated Health (registered in 2018 with India’s Ministry of Corporate Affairs for Promotion of Commerce), along with various industry/professional associations and media partners.

The timing of IHF INDIA is opportune, serving as an international buyer-seller meet and an across-the-counter sales & marketing opportunity, given the booming sectors involved. The current status and immense prospects for all participants in the sunrise industries of interiors-exteriors, premium consumer products, and furniture make this a not-to-be-missed B2B & B2C networking platform.

Currently, India holds the position of the 5th largest global retail destination, contributing over 10% to its GDP.
