Indian pavilion adds to Autumn FairIndian pavilion adds to Autumn Fair

The Autumn Fair will see a new chapter in international collaboration with the introduction of a dedicated Indian Pavilion, championing the vibrancy, craftsmanship, and innovation of Indian design and manufacturing.

20 curated Indian exhibitors will showcase a selection of homewares, lifestyle products, textiles, gifts and more.

‘The Federation of Indian Export Organisations, under the Ministry of Commerce, is showcasing India’s diverse export capabilities at Autumn Fair 2025. Under the ‘Brands from India’ banner, 20 Indian companies are highlighting India’s design evolution and global competitiveness. This participation gains strategic importance following the India and UK trade agreement, which ensures duty-free access for 99% of Indian exports and is expected to double bilateral trade to US$120bn by 2030,’ says Vineet Arora, FIEO deputy director.

‘This marks the first official participation from India at Autumn Fair since the announcement of the Free Trade Agreement. We expect even more Indian brands to join our home, gift, and fashion segments at both the Spring and Autumn Fairs next year. Our aim is to support Indian companies in increasing their exports to the UK and to become their gateway to the UK and Europe,’ says Nihat Berktas, Hyve Group head of international development for retail and fashion.

In addition to the pavilion, visitors can explore a broader Indian presence across the show floor, including textiles, decoration, handicrafts, giftware and jewellery.

The show takes place at the NEC from 7-10 September.
