Meet the Buyer

Our Meet the Buyer events with major retailers, wholesalers and Independents, focus on food and drink companies who have both the potential and the ambition for growth. The aim is to strengthen the supply chain by providing an insight into the purchasing requirements of these buyers.  There is a unique opportunity to increase sales and we actively encourage many suppliers to attend these events.
 

Category Management

To succeed in the market-place, Welsh companies must have an in-depth knowledge of their category so they can offer retailers something which is, better or different or competitively priced  which  customers will want to buy. Our in-depth Category Management analysis will assist in identifying gaps and trends in the market, enabling businesses to evidence their propositions to the major retailers.
