BFA 2019 – The 1st Edition of the Most Professional Beauty Fair in Albania

The first edition of the most professional beauty fair, brought to Albania for the very first time on May 18 and 19, 2019 at the Palace of Congresses in Tirana, proved that the Albanian market had been missing an event of this caliber. It highlighted just how important a professional fair was in giving distributors the opportunity to showcase their products and all the brands they represent—especially since in many cases, consumers were unaware that these renowned international brands were available in Albania. We started with a minimal team of two people and immense passion. Despite initial efforts to bring in established international franchises like Cosmoprof or Sephora, we decided to build something unique and authentic of our own.

Held for the first time at the Palace of Congresses, the fair united domestic and international brands with maximum dedication to detail and aesthetics. Our team expanded to three members when Sara Fani joined, turning the project into a major success that gave Albania an event truly worthy of the beauty industry. This experience was not only a challenge, but also the realization of a dream.
