Latest Event takes Merchandise on Tour!

More than 50 distributors attended the first The BIG Promotional Trade Show event at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Glasgow, before the show moved around venues in the UK and Ireland.

Following Glasgow’s show in early March, the event toured Dublin, Manchester and Heathrow. Visitors to the shows saw a range of products and services displayed at convenient locations, meeting suppliers in a relaxed atmosphere.

Gerry Thomas for The BIG Promotional Trade Show said: “We were delighted with the turn out from the Scottish distributors. It was great to see so many friendly faces. It is always a pleasure to come to Glasgow and to be able to host an event in a city where the visitors to the show feel passionately about the products they sell and are proud that so many suppliers have made

the effort to come and see them.” Exhibitor Andy Larter from Sourcing Machine said the show proved to be worthwhile, with a steady stream of distributors. “We have already won new business from attending and are looking forward to the next one.” Stuart Ross, managing director, from visitor Ross Promotional Products said the show provided a good mix of trusted industry suppliers showcasing a wide range of products.

“Definitely worth taking the time out of the office to visit.” The show returns to Manchester on 3 September at Manchester United, Old Trafford, before exhibiting on 26 September at The Village Hotel, Elstree. The autumn shows will take on a different approach to accommodate seasonal needs and focus on new products.
