India’s leading trade show returns with sustainability, design foresight, and new-age retail innovation for homes at its core
The 17th edition of HGH India, the country’s leading bi-annual trade show for home textiles, home furniture & decor, houseware and gifts, is set to unfold in Mumbai from July 1-4, 2025, with a sharpened focus and renewed relevance. Over the years, HGH India has built its reputation as a forward-looking platform for the Indian home products industry, facilitating not just sourcing but sector-wide dialogue, design discovery, and business evolution. With every next edition, it reinforces its role as a knowledge-led meeting ground that responds to, reflects, and helps shape the future of the home sector in India.
This year, the show takes a significant leap forward, adopting Sustainability as an important cause, championing eco-conscious design, ethical production, and circularity in home products. From biodegradable tableware to organically dyed textiles to recycled mattresses and upcycled décor, the 2025 edition showcases the industry’s shift toward responsible and future-facing practices.
HGH India’s July edition will bring together 700+ Indian and international brands from 32 countries, including 100 new exhibitors with 2,500+ products across four halls at the Bombay Exhibition Centre. With 45,000+ expected high-quality trade buyers from 650 cities and 33 countries, the show reflects the pulse of India’s vast, growing and increasingly sophisticated home market. They will also be able to meet exhibitors from countries like the UK, USA, Italy, Ukraine, Turkey, Iran and South Korea. HGH India will reflect the upgrading of Indian homes and the growing spending capacity of Indian consumers by an average of 15% per annum.
At a time when demand is shifting from price-first to design-led and value-conscious, HGH India remains a vital facilitator for India’s home retail transformation—bridging the gap between general trade and modern retail, speciality home retailers, regional players and global brands, established leaders and emerging voices. Architects & interior designers find a unique combination of furniture, soft furnishings and decorative accessories under one roof, enabling them to combine comprehensive solutions.
