FAQs

 I already have strong retail relationships, why should I exhibit?

Glee isn’t just about meeting new buyers; it’s also a powerful way to strengthen existing relationships. Many retailers use the show to review their current suppliers and explore fresh opportunities, so being there ensures your brand stays competitive.

I’m a small business, how can I compete with bigger brands?

Glee attracts buyers looking for both established brands and emerging suppliers. Many retailers want to diversify their product ranges with unique, high-quality products, meaning you have the opportunity to stand out and secure new stockists.

What if trade shows don’t work for my business?

Success at a trade show isn’t just about setting up a stand and hoping for the best—it’s about making the most of every opportunity. Glee provides a comprehensive exhibitor guide, marketing and PR support, and year-round exposure to help you engage buyers before, during, and after the show. With the right strategy, Glee can be a game-changer for your business.

Will I only meet buyers looking for outdoor products?

Not at all! Glee attracts buyers from all eight sectors of garden retail, meaning you’ll connect with a diverse range of retailers, from garden centres to e-commerce stores. Even those attending for other categories are often on the lookout for complementary outdoor products, making it a valuable opportunity to reach a wider audience.
