About us

Trademart is the largest purchasing platform for retail professionals in Europe. Where retailers find inspiration for the new season and buy collections from thousands of brands in fashion, accessories, shoes, interior, and so much more.

Our story

In 1975 werd Trademart aan de voet van het Atomium neergezet door de Texaanse vastgoedholding Crow. Het doel was om een permanente groothandelsbeurs voor mode en meubelen te creëren. Eén gebouw van maar liefst 140.000 m² waar binnen- en buitenlandse exposanten hun merken en collecties aan detailhandelaren voorstellen en verkopen.

The concept caught on. Exhibitors gathered and new sectors were born. Soon, the Trademart building had to be expanded: 2 new floors were built on top of the 4 original floors. Good for 30,000 m² of additional space. On 6 December 1988, the Fashion Gardens (now fashion & labels) opened its doors to the public. In 1991, at the beginning of the information age, a building of more than 26,000 m² – the Buro & Design Center – was built to answer the demand for flexible office space, offering space to professional service providers and companies from a variety of industries. In 2009, AG Real Estate took a 50% share in the ‘Brussels International Trade Mart’.

Today, Trademart is still an indispensable economic market tool for everyone involved in retail. It’s the platform par excellence for spotting emerging trends and a catalyst for valuable connections between retailers and brands.

In 2020 and 2021, the retail landscape was hit hard by Covid-19. The usually bustling purchasing center closed its doors, retailers closed permanently (or for an indefinite period), and many employees started working from home. After an internal exercise, Trademart decided it was time for a change. A thorough rebranding was carried out in 2020, and the new home & living &go center opened its doors in March 2021.

Inspiration, Orientation and Experience

Trademart strives to be a place where retailers from various sectors meet each other to be inspired and oriented and to have a great purchasing experience.

Buro & Design Center

In 1991, a brand-new building was opened on the ‘Brussels International Trade Mart’ site. In addition to the Trademart concept that connects fashion and lifestyle brands and retailers, there was also a need for a multi-functional working environment for professional service providers and companies. In this context, the new building was named the 'Buro & Design Center'.

Professional workplaces in a unique location

The Buro & Design Center offers tailor-made space for dynamic companies that value flexibility, image, ergonomics and good energy performance. Easily accessible, ideally located at the foot of the Atomium, and in a green environment – in short, a workplace with all the facets and facilities a modern company is looking for.
