Summer 2026 attracted attendees from 42 countries and six continents.

The East Coast is particularly important. The organizer reported it remained its largest buyer region in 2025, while West Coast, Southern and international attendance were also growing. 3️⃣ Attendance / Footfall The organizer has not published a precise physical attendee number for either New York 2026 edition. What is confirmed: August 2026 achieved the highest attendance in Shoppe Object history , traffic grew almost 10% year over year , 900+ exhibitors , attendees from 42 countries , six continents. February also showed an increase in buyer traffic, with visitors from all 50 states and 65+ countries. Earlier editions were already described as attracting thousands of buyers, so I would describe the 2026 physical audience to clients as: Several thousand qualified trade attendees I would not claim an exact 2026 footfall unless the organizer publishes one. SHOPPE ONLINE reach The digital platform is much larger, with the organizer advertising access to 20,000+ vetted North American buyers. That makes SHOPPE ON / Shoppe Online especially interesting for a database campaign. 4️⃣ Verified Buyer Companies, BUYERS ONLY These are particularly useful because the organizer actually identified them as buyer organizations at the February 2026 show, rather than generic companies I selected from the retail industry.
