JTrade welcomes record numbers to biggest-ever show
More than 350 exhibitors took a stand at Alexandra Palace
JTrade welcomed nearly 8,000 visitors to Alexandra Palace last week for a show which, for the first time, also incorporated a food section – KTrade.
With 350 exhibitors across the two shows, from the word of construction, property and food, it was the biggest JTrade show ever.
“This is more than a show,” says founder Ari Feferkorn. “It’s a statement that Jewish business doesn’t stand still. In a world shaped by AI and constant change, we’re not just keeping up, we’re moving forward.”
Launched in 2018, JTrade is Britain’s only Jewish trade expo, connecting those in the construction/property market with potential employees, customers and investors. The newly- added KTrade show for 2026 caused particular excitement with many of the kosher market’s well-known brands taking part as well as smaller independent brands and services.
Nissim Nissim, owner of confectionery brand Keep Me Sweet said: “The show is incredible. I’ve had people visit from all over the world – a shop owner from Canada is here to see what new products he can stock.”
