Meet Accio,

our Official Agentic AI Partner

The national multiples have a buying team. Now you do too. 

Accio is a free app you download to your phone. Think of it as a personal assistant, a concierge and a buying assistant, all rolled into one. Ask it anything about the show, from where to find a supplier to what to put on your shop floor. It'll find the brands that suit your shop, tell you where their stands are and plan your route around them. 

Trusted by over 10 million people globally a month.

Why you'll want it 

Garden retail doesn't stand still. How your customers find you, shop with you and talk about you is constantly changing, and keeping up is part of the job.

At Glee we're always looking for ways to help you stay ahead. That's why we've partnered with Accio to put this technology in your hands, for free. Use it here to buy better across all three days. Keep using it back at the shop, for everything from display advice to what's selling in your category right now.

National multiples have buying teams, analysts and consultants. Most independents have themselves and a good instinct. Accio closes that gap.

Try asking Accio: 

At the show: 
"Find plant suppliers with drought-tolerant ranges" 
"Which sessions cover seasonal merchandising?" 
"Tell me which Home, Gift & Clothing brands are new to Glee this year" 
"Plan my Wednesday around Halls 19 and 20"

Back at the shop: 
"There's a quiet corner near my till, what should I put there to shift more units?" 
"What's selling well in outdoor entertaining right now?" 
"Write me social post copy for a new range I want to promote" 
"What plant varieties will customers be looking for next spring?" 

How it works

We've partnered with Accio, Glee's Official Agentic AI Partner, to give every buyer a free tool that helps you get more out of the show. 

1. Download the Accio app

2. Ask it anything, in your own words

Tell Accio what you're sourcing, what you want to learn or what you need advice on. Type it or send it a photo.

An app that does the work rather than just answering questions. Tell it what you need and it finds it, compares it and plans it for you.
