The third annual Stax Big Brands Show will be returning this year in Manchester and Falkirk, showcasing some of the biggest names in DIY, garden and homeware.

The ideal opportunity for independent retailers to meet with some of the biggest brands in the business, The Big Brands Show will be the place to enjoy exclusive offers and hear about new product launches before anybody else.

The Manchester show, which is held exclusively for customers of the four England based Cash & Carry branches will be held at the Stax flagship store in Worsley on Tuesday 24th and Wednesday 25th September from 9am till 5pm.

The impressive 100,000 square foot warehouse will be transformed into a store come grand exhibition hall with reps from all major DIY brands giving expert advice and showcasing brand new products.

Staff will also be on hand to answer questions about Stax own-brand ranges including Supa, Glenwear and Amabassador as well as Stax retailer support initiatives Till2Till, SupaValue and the Retailer Web Programme.

The Scottish show will be based at the Macdonald Inchyra Hotel and Spa in Falkirk, open from 10am until 6pm on Tuesday 8th October. Customers of Stax Edinburgh and Wishart will be welcomed into the venue as Stax hope to build on the great success of last year’s show.

With a number of last year’s exhibitors already re-booking for this year and numerous enquiries for visitor passes received so far this looks like an event not to be missed.

Stax Joint Managing Director David Hibbert commented, “The Big Brands Show is always a massive event in our calendar and just keeps growing year on year.  We have taken on-board feedback from previous shows and are confident that this year will be even more beneficial for both our customers and suppliers providing an ideal platform for them to engage.”
