The Italy-America Chamber of Commerce of Texas, in collaboration with Veronafiere, is pleased to announce the opening of applications for the Marmomac 2026 Hosted Buyers Program, offering selected U.S. industry professionals the opportunity to attend the world's leading international exhibition for natural stone, machinery, technology, and design.
The 60th edition of Marmomac will take place in Verona, Italy, from September 22 to 25 bringing together thousands of exhibitors and visitors from more than 50 countries. The exhibition has long been recognized as the premier international marketplace for the natural stone industry, where innovation, craftsmanship, technology, and design converge to shape the future of the sector.
As the official partner responsible for recruiting buyers in the United States, IACC Texas is currently seeking qualified professionals whose business activities align with the products and technologies showcased at the exhibition.
The Chamber welcomes applications from distributors, importers, dealers, stone fabricators, contractors, and technical professionals involved in the sale, distribution, specification, or use of natural stone slabs and blocks, stone processing machinery, equipment, tools, abrasives, and related technologies.
Applications are also encouraged from architects, interior designers, and design specifiers working on luxury commercial projects—including high-end hotels, five-star restaurants, wellness facilities, and spas—as well as prestigious residential developments. Preference will be given to professionals who are currently involved in active projects where natural stone plays a significant role.
Professionals selected by Veronafiere will be invited to participate in a sponsored business program designed to maximize networking and sourcing opportunities throughout the exhibition.
Participating in Marmomac offers U.S. professionals a unique opportunity to discover the latest innovations in natural stone, establish direct relationships with Italy's leading producers, identify new suppliers, and gain valuable insights into the latest market trends and technologies driving the global stone industry.
Industry professionals interested in being considered for the Hosted Buyers Program are invited to contact Francesca Bacci for additional information and application details.
