Press release:
New York, New York, April 10, 2014 – PROJECT New York will kick off the Spring/Summer ’15 shows with a relocation from Pier 94 to the newly renovated Jacob Javits Center.
In an effort to ease navigation for retailers, PROJECT President Tommy Fazio selected the landmark venue that also hosts fellow menswear trade shows, MRket and Agenda, to maximize the buyer’s experience on the show floor.
Fazio notes, “The number one difficulty during market week has been the retailers’ commute to attend all of the shows in three days. Positioning ourselves at Javits will help buyers’ utilize thier time to discover new brands at PROJECT.”
This move will mark the New York debut of The TENTS, PROJECT’s high-end contemporary menswear show.
PROJECT SOLE New York will also exhibit at the new location under the direction of Advantar’s President of Footwear Leslie Gallin.
PROJECT New York will run Sunday, July 20th – Tuesday, July 22nd, 2014.
