Retailers benefit from ‘meet the buyer’ event

Members of the Shop and Display Equipment Association (SDEA) started their year with a big sales push at its highly acclaimed ‘Meet the Buyer’ day.

Held annually in central London, the event attracts some of the UK’s leading retail groups, and the one day event forged many new partnerships.

One attendee remarked: “I met some interesting people and gained some potential new suppliers for the future.”

SDEA director Lawrence Cutler commented: “Meet the Buyer gives members the opportunity to have one to one meetings with senior buyers from major high street brands where they can present their new concepts. It’s just one of the many ways SDEA brings commercial benefits to its members.”
