What Exhibitors Say About The Show...
“What a great show! By far one of the best shows I have been involved with.”
J.E. Bert Severns, Director of Business Development, Diadora America
“This was a good show for us. The show has grown each time over the past 4 years and we like the repeat business in between! We look forward to the next show.”

"Celtic Marketplace is a great opportunity for Celtic producers to meet and network with buyers from across the United States and Canada. Our producers were very pleased with the number of orders placed at the show and the contacts made during the show. The show gave us the opportunity to showcase established and emerging producers from our region and give them the necessary feedback from buyers to further develop their products and businesses."
Bernard Burton, Nova Scotia Showcase
“The show was terrific for me. I also opened many new accounts.”
Cathy Lynch, Timeless Treasures
"Celtic Chaos had an increase of over 30% in show sales over last September. We look forward to seeing everyone in 2010.”
Cyndy Faulkenberg, Director of Sales, Celtic Chaos
“Reed & Barton’s Belleek sales division considers Celtic Marketplace "a must attend show"; We cherish seeing existing accounts, and see retailers that do not attend the Ireland show in April. Most importantly we always see new retailers interested in Belleek & Reed & Barton’s products.”
George Davis, Belleek Sales Mgr., Reed & Barton
“Celtic Marketplace is a consistently good show for us.”
Kieran Costello, Carraig Donn

"Celtic Marketplace is an intrinsic part of JMH Manufacturing’s annual sales strategy. Without a sales rep on the road in the US, the show provides us with the ideal vehicle to meet customers, to network, and most importantly, to write orders. The show is consistently attended by serious buyers and falls at an ideal time of the year."
Eve Harbourne, Sales Manger, JMH Manufacturing
