Here’s a sneak peek into some of the newest additions:

I Love Casa NY – Suite C102: With high demands for help in wandering the streets of NYC, while coming to shop, this concierge/events LLC helps provide just that. They recommend hotels, shows, and help plan the trip to the United Sates for our International buyers.

Media Graph – Suite 418: Because you need signage to display your products, 7 W New York provides several companies, showcasing how to “showcase” your goods. Media Graph is just one providing services of digital signage, enhancing the visuals of your product or lines.

Gul Ahmed Textile – Suite 515: Starting back in the 1900s, this is a corporation in the fashion, retail, and textile industries. Spinning, Weaving, Yarn Dying, Processing, Designing... What can’t they do?

Thompson Ferrier LLC – Suite 545: A company literally based off of a true love story that smells so sweet, which is what they are! A new and upcoming fragrance candle company who handpicks their design, so that when not lit, the candle goes with any décor in the home.

S.L. Home Fashions – Suite 633: With a vision of bringing innovative design to the home fashion & textile industry, this company is already expanding their showroom. Not only does this team bring unique designs to the table, or bed, but they also dip their hands with a few licenses such as NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAA, NASCAR, PLAYBOY, NICKELODEON, and HELLO KITTY. (This provides 7 W New York a little perk as you never know who they’re going to bring in, just like one of the NYC Giants SuperBowl players last market... shhhh,  keep to yourself)

Pavana Watches – Suite 645: What time is it? Time to talk to the experts....Their contemporary Fancy Face, classic & chic Bombshell, and trend-conscious Yacht Man brands all meet the needs of a targeted market.

TMD Holdings – Suite 721: Uh huh...All shook up with our TMD Holdings. Current licensing for gift and tabletop industries include but not limited to Elvis Presley, Betty Boop, Marvel, Marilyn Manroe, and so many more! Not only do they have their license, but they also are involved with custom and private labels... You’ll just have to see their showroom in person to believe it.

Kalaty Rugs – Suite 807: Tradition for Today. That’s what this family-owned business has been known for and nothing but all about quality, design, and color consciousness.

Kavalier Glassworks – Suite 924: SIMAX Bakeware. Cookware. Teapots. Cruets. Glassware. Combined with elegance and transparency, we are delighted to bring yet, another, great resource for any industry.

While the list doesn’t stop there, we’ll take a breather for a moment to take in all the NEWness around here.
