“The West Coast Trend Show has become one of our favorite shows to attend. The timing is great, and it’s very easy to work and feel like you’ve accomplished something. Everyone hangs out and it’s a great environment for getting to know other retailers and manufacturers a bit better.”

“I attend the WCTS because it provides a comfortable working environment that attracts a diverse customer account base to work with! It is so much more cost effective to schedule working meetings here as opposed to driving all over the state. The upgraded rooms are a nice surprise.”

“LA is so much easier than Las Vegas. The WCTS makes sure we get a good room rate at a hotel that has quick and easy access to the airport shuttle, tons of vendors, and you don’t have to pay one cent for food. It’s as good as it gets for retailers.”

“The WCTS is a very convenient venue to start off a selling season. The Embassy Suites at LAX North is easy for the retailers to navigate. The atmosphere of the show is cordial and intimate. The Saturday evening cocktail and dinner party is enjoyed by all. Good wine, very good food and fun entertainment.”

“When asked why I attend the West Coast Trend show the first thing I think of is how easy and comfortable the show is. Having everything under one roof saves time and hassle traveling from hotel to show. But the biggest reason we attend is the personal touch. Ken and team go above and beyond to think of everything, and always with a smile. From the refreshments to the fun entertainment, Ken thinks of it all. I also look forward to seeing the new and exciting lines they find each season. I have been attending shows across the U.S. for 48 years. This one never disappoints. Thank you Ken and team for going the extra mile. See you next season!”

“This is a very convenient show. I fly in directly from Eugene, Oregon and can start working immediately. With so many key vendors in one easy to work spot, it makes my life easier. Ken has done a great job bringing so many vendors into one spot. One on one time with vendors is much more intimate than at larger shows like Magic. Thanks for making this show available!”

“Thank you for sending me $100 as the Trend Show reward! I don’t think I deserve it because the show is THE best reward for any buyer like me. I appreciate everything that you and your staff do to make it as pleasant as possible. The attention, services, food, drinks, and the magic shows are great. I attend trade shows in NY, Las Vegas, Atlanta, Frankfurt, but the WCTS show is my favorite and where I do most of my buying. I wish you continuous success.”

Each year more is done to make this an even combination of business and relationship between brands and stores. As a specialty store on and around the west coast, we appreciate that.

“Big thing for us is we can be in store all day Friday, arrive at the hotel Friday night to be able to work all day Saturday, Sunday, Monday and leave late Monday afternoon and reopen the store Tuesday. We are only out of the store for a day and a half. We can do our entire buy here in that time!”

“The WCTS is the best venue for multi line reps and also for retailers that need to see more than one line within a limited time frame. I can show two lines within an hour and the retailers can manage their time efficiently and stay on schedule without traveling long distances between appointments.”

“The West Coast Trend Show has become more and more important for vendors and retailers alike over the last few years. The atrium style layout of the hotel is great for vendors to see what is going on, and who is attending the show at any given time. The two room suites allow more than enough space for a quiet and very focused appointment with customers, avoiding the noise and distractions that are often present at other trade shows. A very cost effective stress free and fun show to attend!”
