Stalls at IITF
From army equipment to furniture glass to clothes, packaged as well as cooked food items, and household gadgets, Trade Fair has it all and sometimes at amazing discounts. Many visitors carry trolley carts and suitcases to bring home their booty and the pieces of luggage get filled very soon.
Trade Fair is one event that fuses craft and trade and they carry a quality collection of handicrafts and handloom in the state stalls, Khadi, Hunar Haat, and Saras Ajeevika pavilions. We vouch the best variety of pan-Indian crafts is available here at the most reasonable prices. The fair is a lovely resource for traditional Indian wear for men – women – children.
A host of foreign countries set up stalls and love the kilims from Afghanistan, gemstones from Sri Lanka, tribal dolls from Ghana, and knick-knacks from Thailand. Dhakai Jamdani sarees brought by traders from Bangladesh and Pakistani suit pieces are a huge hit with women. If you want to add some international brightness to your home, a Turkish lamp is just the thing.

Trade Fair is like a picnic and many visitors use this opportunity to try regional cuisine. State-wise food stalls as well as general food stalls are set up at various areas in the fair. These stalls offer regular naan, chole-bhature, sandwiches, beverages, and exotic dishes like Chhena Poda from Odisha, Anarsa from Bihar, egg and soya rice cakes from Mizoram, or sticky rice pudding from Manipur.

It was a virtual trip to the fair through this post. One must surely visit if in the city. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you think so.
You must if you want to know India 🙂
Visiting IITF in Delhi is quite an experience. I visited the fair in Pragati Maidan, many years ago and loved it. There is so much to learn, especially about new innovations. As you have rightly said, it is indeed a picnic of sorts too. Sandy N Vyjay
Yes, a lot to learn 🙂
We need more and more fairs like these that almost present India at one place. IITF has been one of the topmost Fairs since many years. I used to hear about different booths from my father.
Agree 🙂
