GA Members Get Ready To Meet A Trio Of Independents

Members of the Giftware Association are being invited to take advantage of the organisation’s first Meet The Buyers event of the year, which focuses on independent stores. The event will be held in Birmingham on March  25 and March 26 between 10am-5pm.

The first trio of shops to attend will be the owners of Highworth Emporium in Highworth, Expressions in Swindon (whose sister stores are The Cats Whiskers in Bishops Cleeve, and Polkador in Keynsham) along with a buyer from Brookfields Garden Centre.

Suppliers taking part will each have a table to display their products, and 20 minutes to deliver their pitch. The stores will be looking for gifts, fashion accessories, greeting cards, toys and food.
