Summer Casual Market Atlanta Highlights Industry Engagement During Focused Standalone Format

ATLANTA, GA – August 5, 2026 – Casual Market Atlanta demonstrated the continued value of a dedicated outdoor furnishings marketplace, drawing strong attendance and buying organizations to AmericasMart Atlanta from Tuesday, July 21 – Thursday, July 23, 2026. Produced by ANDMORE in partnership with the International Casual Furnishings Association (ICFA), the standalone Summer Casual Market brought together qualified buyers and leading outdoor living suppliers for three days of focused product discovery, supplier investment, and relationship building.

"Summer 2026 reinforced the strength of Casual Market Atlanta as a business destination for the outdoor living industry," said Amory Wooden, Chief Revenue Officer, ANDMORE. "Seeing growth despite it being a standalone market shows us that qualified buyers came to do business, exhibitors continued investing, and the industry maintains momentum. The focused format creates more opportunities for meaningful conversations, stronger business relationships, and productive sourcing, while continued investment in new showrooms, expanded resources, and cross-category buying ensures customers can accomplish more in every visit."

"The outdoor furnishings industry thrives on experiencing product, collaboration and connection,” said Siri Scott, Executive Director, ICFA. “Casual Market Atlanta remains the place where those opportunities come together. Building on the momentum of Summer Casual Market Atlanta, we invite buyers and designers to make the most of Fall Market Atlanta through expanded buying opportunities, valuable networking and a shared celebration of the exceptional people and products shaping our industry's future."

Despite taking place independently rather than alongside Atlanta Market, Summer 2026 generated a strong buyer participation and engagement across permanent showrooms and temporary exhibits. Summer 2026 continued its investment in growth through five new permanent showroom openings on Floor 7, the debut of the Outdoor Living Expo, and expanded cross-category sourcing opportunities throughout AmericasMart Atlanta. Buyers explored more than 120 permanent outdoor furnishings resources alongside complementary gift, home décor, and Gardens showrooms, creating a comprehensive sourcing experience within one campus.

"I came specifically for the outdoor furniture brands. I'm used to walking all over High Point, so it was refreshing to have everything in one building. Scheduling appointments, discovering new vendors, and seeing existing partners was so much easier," said Rebekka Ferris, Upholstery & Outdoor Buyer for Robb & Stucky Furniture, Interiors. "I was especially excited to see Treasure Garden and Shademaker's showroom—they've introduced beautiful new design options for their umbrellas—and OW Lee's new Passo gold fire pit really stood out. Casual Market Atlanta is an easy market to work. Even if you buy across outdoor furniture and accessories, the three buildings are so close together that you can efficiently source multiple categories in one trip. I would absolutely recommend attending."
