Ideas that sell
Attending the show gives you the chance to physically pick things up, see how they are made, evaluate the packaging, and really gauge the quality – much better than taking someone else’s word for it or looking at small photographs on the web.
If you’re looking for the best products for your retail business, this is your chance to meet a great range of exhibitors at a relaxed, timely & effective show.
Meet your customers’ needs.
Customers want what’s fresh and unusual – so you need to snap up the latest ideas, styles and innovations before they lose their novelty. However, getting all your information from reps, or attempting to follow what’s new by browsing the internet, leaves you with only part of the picture.
A few hours that will set you up for a successful year.
The buyers who come to this show are pressed for time – but they realise that attendance puts them at the forefront of the latest trends for a whole 12 months. In just a few hours you’ll get a real sense of which way the market is moving, what’s likely to sell best in 2026, and grab the best ideas while they’re still fresh. Taking place at the beginning of the year, before the season kicks off, there’s no better time for a visit to Giving & Living.
Build relationships.
There’s no substitute for meeting people face to face – you’ll almost certainly get better terms and superior service if you’ve taken the time to build a proper relationship with them.
This show is important to us as it allows us to meet new suppliers that we would not necessarily see at other trade shows in our area. It allows us to view products and suppliers that we possibly would not see or have the time to see at other larger venues and the organising staff are all very helpful and friendly.”
