“Well organised, an efficient and friendly team and a great atmosphere overall.” Craig Brew Director, Sales UK, Nicoccino
“After being an exhibitor of the Independent Hotel Show for the last few years I knew what to expect and was not disappointed. Pub15 was very professional and the visitor numbers and quality were excellent. I have already secured a £60,000 contract 4 days after the event and expect a good deal more to come.” Guy Bostock Director, Concorde BGW
The show had buzz; the show had balance; and the show had a feel-good vibe remarkable for an event in its first year. We are now in talks with single pub operators, small pub groups, the largest pub groups - and food service companies as well. We met so many companies we had wanted to meet, but never had the time to reach. A dream.” Rupert Ponsonby Founder, Mr Trotter
“The event was extremely well organised and well attended. Over the 2 days we spoke to a great number of various operators that we hope will become Punch Taverns partners in the near future. It was also an excellent way of showcasing our investments and branding Punch Taverns to suppliers, existing and new contacts and influential multiple operators.” James Watts Partner Resourcing Consultant, Punch Taverns
“BPM were delighted to be involved in such a fantastic show, which provided us with a great platform to meet new companies and customers. Brilliant from start to finish and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. Well done to the Pub15 team!” Lucy Hutchinson Marketing Manager, British Premium Meats
Show Features “A brilliant show! Interesting suppliers, a great layout, and really engaging panel discussions. Next year’s in the diary.”

The Taste Table The Taste Table offered hands-on, practical advice, tips and tastings aimed at operators looking for fresh ideas and products to present to their customers.
The central networking point of the event, an inspiring environment that provided a unique opportunity to meet with industry peers, establish new relationships and share ideas.
VIP & Press Terrace
Sophie’s Bar One of the UK’s leading beer sommeliers, Sophie Atherton, curated on Sophie’s Bar; a diverse selection of beers available to taste at the show, with plenty of lesser known gems, as well as better known old favourites that she believes would do well on more bars.
The VIP & Press Terrace provided an area to relax, meet and network with other key industry players - a haven of calm at the heart of the show.
“Best hospitality show I have been to in a long while.” Mitch Adams GM, The Bull - Highgate
“PUB15 was premium in look and feel, attracting a broad spectrum of visitors from within the industry and providing an ideal platform for exhibitors looking to get their brands in front of high quality operators and key decision makers.” Steve Carter, Sales & Marketing Director, Frobishers
