Published 27th August 2014
With the 2014 Big Brands Show now just around the corner, Stax Trade Centres have given the strongest hint yet that this years events will see more of the UK DIY & Hardware industry’s leading brands than ever lining up at the events in both Manchester & Falkirk.
Building on the tremendous success of previous shows the format will once again offer the ideal platform for all Stax independent retailers and trade customers to meet representatives from the gardening, DIY, electrical, plumbing, housewares and hardware/tools sectors. It’s a great chance to discuss the latest product launches and plan orders for the year ahead.
Catch up with representatives from Stax and over 70 other big brands at the Stax flagship store in Worsley on Wednesday 1st and Thursday 2nd of October, and the prestigious MacDonald Inchyra Hotel and Spa in Falkirk on Tuesday 7th October.
The format of the shows allows the biggest brands in the industry to showcase their products and give product demonstrations to customers, a unique opportunity which also benefits independent retailers as they will get first hand information on how to use and what to pair products with in order to maximize cross sale opportunities.
This valuable expert advice will be on hand all day across both events from some of the biggest brand names in the business including those already confirmed for the shows; Scotts Miracle-Gro, Bayer, Black & Decker, Akzo Nobel, Ronseal, Rentokil, Bahco, & Dencon with many others confirming their attendance.
Stax have been working with all suppliers to put together some amazing deals that will only be available to those attending one of the shows and there have also been some superb raffle prizes donated by suppliers ensuring this is an event not to miss. In addition to these amazing offers visitors will also benefit from outstanding deals on Stax own brand ranges Supa, Glenwear, Ambassador & Picardy. Customers can also place orders for a number of show specials and stock and stand deals allowing them to profit more.
Stax Joint Managing Director David Hibbert is looking forward to the shows commenting, “Once again our suppliers have worked with us to support the Big Brands Shows and provide some amazing deals for our customers. We are very pleased to have so many of the industry’s leading brands exhibiting and the fact that so many have registered to take part so early on underlines the importance of these events in our industry.”
