A number of surprises await all visitors to Sourcing City LIVE! being held this Wednesday & Thursday at FIVE in Farnborough. From arriving at the uniquely dressed reception it will be clear that this is not an ordinary exhibition.

The show itself features Simon Weston MBE & Matthew Cohn (Vice Chairman of ASI) as pre-show speakers on Wednesday from 9am to 10am, there is also a Free Breakfast courtesy Fanela on both mornings from 8am to 9am. The show hall doors open at 10am when visitors can visit the 116 top industry suppliers informally, or by pre-made online appointments.

Throughout the day the Free Caf? will be keeping all visitors and suppliers refreshed, and as a treat in the afternoon there is a Free Crepes & Smoothies Bar. There is even a ‘Roving Tea Trolley’ for people far too engrossed to get to the caf?!  

Everyone at the show is invited to a Free Drinks Reception, courtesy of PromoAlliance from 5pm to 6pm on the first day.  This will be followed by the SC LIVE! Party Night at Princes Hall Theatre, with Stavros Flatley, Live Tribute Acts, The Ambassador Live Band, a Games Zone, and even a Quiet Area for people who prefer to simply chat.  The food is an informal buffet, and the SC Party Night will be a night of fun, a great opportunity to network with new contacts, and to meet up with friends in the industry. Tickets are just ?25, or for people wishing to dine elsewhere there is free entry after 9pm.

The show hall itself has more surprises, like The Product Innovation Wall, a feature on ‘UK Made’ Suppliers, and Free Pick’n Mix Sweets. For SC Members there is an exclusive Hospitality Area to relax for a drink, or over lunch, and all of the Catalogue Groups will be holding Free Hosted Lunches for their members.

There are also Free ?50 Hotel Vouchers, Free ?50 Travel Vouchers and Free Shuttle Buses from airports, Farnborough station, and to and from the hotels.

To round off the event, all visitors leaving after 3.30pm on Thursday will receive a Free Bottle of Champagne & a Box of Thornton Chocolates.

Sourcing City are known to 100% support the ‘Professional Distributor Sales Channel’ in all that they do, and this exclusive trade show is for Professional Distributors Only.  This is because Sourcing City believe that professionals should have the full attention of suppliers, and that companies that dabble or want to research the market should not be allowed to visit industry events.  After all, distributors have worked hard to gain their industry knowledge and to build their businesses, and Sourcing City believe distributors must ‘earn their spurs’ and achieve the published visitor criteria before being invited to attend.

Sourcing City have put everything into making SC LIVE! a special event solely for professional distributors, and they are excited that we are going to deliver something of true value to everyone going along.

If it matters to you that there is a show exclusively for ‘professional distributors’, then all SC LIVE! now needs is you!

Badges have already been sent to registered distributors, however it is still easy for invited distributors to simply register at the door. Sounds like an industry event not to be missed.
