A bit more about the event, the exhibition and the organisation that has put it together…

SIGNATURES (the name given to the exhibition) brings together the best in  South African product design in this curated selection of craft  and design products that stand out because of their originality, pattern and use of colour. Skilled artisans have made use of interesting techniques and quality local materials, providing meaningful work and income for local communities.

 The ´Development by Design´ project enables small and medium businesses in South Africa to develop and grow. Nearly 30 entrepreneurs are participating in this project, taking their design studio, workshop or manufacturing company to the next level, and onwards to the export market. The project is an initiative of The Dutch Centre for the Promotion of Imports from Developing Countries (CBI), and their local partners, the CCDI and SEDA. Together, these business support organisations  promote South African entrepreneurs at both local and international trade fairs.

 SARCDA from 20 – 23 August 2015 at Gallagher Convention Centre, Johannesburg, brings together verified retail buyers with South African and international wholesalers, importers, exporters and manufacturers. The highly successful and anticipated SARCDA showcases the latest in gift, design and décor trends.
