With the launch of Curated by Trademart, Trademart takes a new step in its evolution from a purchasing center to a complete knowledge and discovery platform for retail professionals. The biannual magazine brings together insights, trends, and voices from the field — including exhibitors, buyers, trendwatchers, and entrepreneurs — offering guidance in a rapidly changing landscape.
In a context of shifting consumer behavior, digitalization, and economic uncertainty, the need for direction and clarity continues to grow. As Europe’s largest B2B purchasing center, positioned at the crossroads of brands, retailers, and market insights, Trademart embraces this role explicitly.
Explore the magazineMore than offering: guiding what truly matters
While Trademart has traditionally been a meeting place where a wide range of products comes together, its focus is increasingly shifting toward supporting retail professionals in making well-informed decisions. Curated by Trademart is a natural extension of this: not a traditional corporate publication, but an editorial platform that selects, deepens, and looks ahead.
Thanks to its close connection to retail needs, in-depth category insights, and access to a diverse mix of established exhibitors and emerging players, Trademart translates market developments into concrete, actionable inspiration.

Voices from the industry
The first edition of Curated by Trademart brings together a variety of perspectives within retail, highlighting Trademart’s connecting role in the sector.
The magazine features, among others, a trend forecast for AW26 by designer and influencer Jordy Arthur, interviews with exhibitors sharing their vision and innovations, and testimonials from buyers about their selection processes and strategic choices.
In addition, it offers space for broader reflection on retail in challenging times, complemented by practical insights and market analyses. The result is a layered narrative in which different voices strengthen one another.
If you ask me today what Trademart stands for, the answer is simple: we aim to be more than just a purchasing center. We believe retail starts with people with a conversation in a showroom, an unexpected discovery among collections, advice that comes at just the right moment, or an idea sparked during a talk or an event.
A platform for connection and discovery
With this publication, Trademart reinforces its role as a meeting place and reference point within the retail sector. Exhibitors are not only given a physical space to showcase their offerings, but also an editorial platform to share their expertise and vision.
At the same time, Curated by Trademart supports retailers in their search for relevant products by not only presenting what is available, but, more importantly, by highlighting what truly matters.
In doing so, the magazine aligns seamlessly with Trademart’s broader ambition: to help retail professionals make better-informed decisions, discover new opportunities, and move forward with confidence.
