Showcase Ireland is one the largest international trade fairs where designers and craft makers provide a choice of contemporary and heritage collections, offering innovation, quality, sustainability and a distinctive point of difference to retail buyers from across the globe.

It’s an event Bobby has attended and reported on in previous years and like a lot of other events this year has gone virtual.

Bobby was joined by Eddie Shanahan, Board Member of the Design and Crafts Council and of course old friend of the show, to chat about this year’s event.
