Not only are trade fairs great for buyers who are looking for a one-stop-shop to do their sourcing, industry-led trade fairs such as AGHA Melbourne Gift Fair can also offer so much more!
At AGHA Melbourne Gift Fair 3-7 August, you can establish a network of new suppliers, get the best deals and discounts on products, discover new best-selling ranges and find out more about services that can help you improve your business.
Nice to meet you
Having thousands of suppliers under one roof is ideal for establishing a wide network of contacts for future business opportunities.
Even when you don’t order at a particular fair, you will need to replenish your stock further down the line. Schedule meetings with new and existing suppliers, but leave some time to walk the floor―there might be an exhibitor that catches your eye that you haven’t heard of or seen before.
Don’t miss out on the social events. They are a great opportunity to connect with suppliers and your peers in a more relaxed environment and you might meet people you otherwise wouldn’t have contacted.
Deal or no deal
Wholesalers and suppliers exhibit at trade fairs because they want your business. Fairs are also a great occasion to offer show specials or discounts for buyers who order at the show. Packed with valuable deals, don’t forget to pick up a copy of the Buyers Guide when you arrive at the AGHA Melbourne Gift Fair to find over 40 Exclusive Fair Offers.
However, buyers shouldn’t get too greedy. Whether you’re negotiating with existing suppliers or building new relationships, it’s all about developing partnerships based on trust and honesty that will last a life-time.
What’s new?
Do your homework before you attend a trade fair and know what you are looking for. Buyers have limited time so they need to make sure they maximise their visit at the fair.
However, don’t put all your eggs in one basket and leave room for some future best-sellers. For example, spend some time meeting new exhibitors at the AGHA Melbourne Gift Fair this August, you never know what fabulous new products you might discover!
