With just days to go until the show, retailers have until 5pm, Friday 26th April to register for free for Completely Retail Marketplace UK on 30th April at Old Billingsgate Market, London.
A huge number of brands have signed up to attend the April edition of the show, including Boots, Ninja Warrior, B&Q, Costa, Next, Rituals, Decathlon, easyGym, Greggs, Primark, Pets at Home, Starbucks, Sports Direct, Metro Bank, Waterstones, Superdrug, Asda, Daniel Wellington and Travelodge.
Attendees will be able to network with the property agents, landlords and developers also attending the show and have a productive day of doing business, accelerating the otherwise lengthy process of property acquisition.
Sponsored by The Gym, Co-Op and Avison Young, the show will also be welcoming a host of exhibiting brands and property giants, including Savills, ALDI, Cushman & Wakefield, Lidl, Iceland, British Land, Tesco, Morrisons.
Unique from any other UK deal-making event, the exhibitor stands at Marketplace are all the same size with identically-sized branding, creating uniformity and a level playing field for all. Essential services such as Wi-Fi, phone chargers, refreshments and lunch are also provided and at no extra charge.
Visitors and exhibitors will also benefit from access to Completely Retail Marketplace UK’s two feature areas: Soapbox and The Leisure Hub. A hit with brands that are either embryonic or expanding and looking for bricks and mortar stores, Soapbox is a stage in front of an audience of agents and landlords with available properties. Participating brands, which have previously included Zaberdast, The Massage Company, Gravity and London Grace, take to the stage for a 3-4 minute presentation to pitch property requirements.
The Leisure Hub is a new concept for 2019 and will be a specialist area on the top floor of the show that welcomes leisure operators and specialist property professionals. Here, leisure brands can discuss their site requirements and will also be able to observe an informative breakfast panel discussion about franchising, featuring a line-up of experienced, well-known speakers from the industry.
With such a successful reception year on year in its home market of the UK, the Marketplace format, organised by the award winning Completely Events, has expanded overseas in recent years and is now held in Stockholm, Prague, Amsterdam and Madrid (new for 2019) to facilitate an environment for retailers looking to enter or grow within an international market.
