With the assistance of FashionCapital.co.uk we will host one of the most sought out international web conferences between NYC and London independent retail market." Ms. Bannigan continued," it is rather exciting to think about two of the world's leading shopping capitals coming together to discuss the differences, share advice and experiences and more from an indie retailer perspective."

Independent Retail Week: NYC aims to impel economy into local independent businesses and increase revenue. From November 17 – 23, 2008 New York City's best independent stores in fashion, beauty, accessories and more are offering a selection of services and products at a 20% discount!
