Press Release

Cleveland, OH (December 16, 2025) IndieMe Marketplace, the leading online wholesale platform focused exclusively on handcrafted, Made in the USA/Canada product lines, announced its 13th IndieMe Marketplace Virtual Expo, taking place January 21–27, 2026.

Created to resemble the momentum of a traditional trade show, the Virtual Expo invites qualified retail buyers to discover new lines, shop limited-time specials, and order directly from participating makers through IndieMe’s integrated platform.

A virtual trade show experience, built for how retailers source now

Since launching the Virtual Expo concept in 2020, IndieMe has hosted twelve week-long wholesale virtual trade shows from 2020 through 2025, providing a consistent destination for retailers seeking handcrafted product lines year-round. 

It’s a trade show experience built for real retail life. Buyers can shop the Virtual Expo from their store or home, saving money on travel and hotels and avoiding time out of the shop, and that breathing room often lets them order deeper, bringing in more of what their customers already love and discovering a few new lines along the way.

“Now, as the industry navigates ongoing shifts, our Virtual Expo remains a place where artists and retailers can come together, support one another, and continue to thrive,” said Jacqueline Adamany, owner of IndieMe Marketplace.
