The show’s special Newcomers’ area showcases new companies from the region that have never exhibited at a trade show before, so you can be among the first buyers to discover them. The roster includes Cornwall’s Copperfish Distillery, The Healthy Chocolate Hut and food wrap specialists Bee Retro.
Several exhibitors will have showexclusive offers for visiting buyers. These include discounts, free delivery, and deals on service packages. Among those participating are GingerBeard’s Preserves, Devon Rum Company and accountants Everett King.
If you want more buying opportunities (or miss the Exeter event), the show will return in the summer, with the one-day Source Roadshow taking place at Ashton Gate Stadium in Bristol on Thursday 16th June. Visit thesourcetradeshow.co.uk for more information on both shows.
