Five days for an American buyer of a high-end design retail chain to decide what to fill next season's stores with.
Maison & Objet is one of the world's leading appointments for design and lifestyle. Buyers from premium decoration chains on the US East and West Coasts, distributors from Asia (China, Japan, Korea), Middle Eastern lifestyle prescribers, Italian, German and British creators — they converge twice a year at the Paris-Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre to spot trends, negotiate next season's contracts, identify new talent.
For this clientele, transportation must disappear. The car is neutral, the chauffeur silent, the arrival punctual — nothing distracts from the real work that happens in showrooms and over business cards. Mercedes E-Class for individual transfers, V-Class for 6-7 person commercial teams, S-Class First Class for CEOs of major decoration houses.
Precellence has not yet operated Maison & Objet in-house. We prepare each exhibition in advance: access points, schedules and drop-off points. Before pick-up, you receive your chauffeur's name, number plate and direct phone number.
