Published 21st August 2017

The annual Stax Big Brands Show is coming back for its seventh year at our Glasgow and Manchester branches in September and October and as always, it’s going to be bigger than ever.
The show kicks off at our Glasgow branch on the 27th September and will be followed by a two day stint in Manchester on the 4th - 5th October.
This year we’re expecting a massive 150 brands in attendance across 12 sectors, providing visitors with incredible choice and value.
As always, both events will feature show stopping deals and offers from some of the biggest brands in the DIY, homewares, garden and hardware industry. The Big Brands Show has become the place for brands to launch new products and innovations alongside demonstrations that allow visitors to stay ahead of the curve.
After being introduced in 2016, this year will see the return of some unbelievable, show only pallet deals. These bulk deals can only be ordered by attending the show and will not be available anywhere else. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
Competitions and giveaways are another show favourite, with plenty of chances to grab some fantastic freebies and win great prizes. With all of this and more on offer, it’s a show that you won’t want to miss out on!
New for this year is our exciting Big Brands auction, whereby visitors will be able to bid on various lots made up of bulk auction items and potentially grab some fantastic deals at lower than normal prices. Going, going, gone!
As ever, Big Brands maintains position as a FREE show for Stax customers. Whether you’re an independent, multiple or online e-tailer, there will be something for everyone at this years show. Register your interest to attend now and receive all of the latest Big Brands news, offers and more during the run up to the shows.
