The Federation of Garden & Leisure Manufacturers is taking UK representation to this leading US event in Las Vegas on 26-28 March.
The long-established National Hardware Show with Lawn, Garden & Outdoor Living (NHS) is North America’s premier trade show for the hardware, DIY and lawn & garden sectors. Taking place annually in Las Vegas, it usually attracts around 2,700 exhibitors and over 25,000 trade visitors.
Gardenex will be taking a group of innovative suppliers who are keen to access the North American market, as part of the UK pavilion. The US home improvement and DIY sector is worth $343 billion and garden sales are generally estimated to be over $50 billion, the highest in the world.
The overall show experience for visitors includes live sessions on the future of retail, product sourcing and merchandising, a showcase of influencers’ picks of their favourite show products and DIY demonstrations. Networking opportunities include awards presentations, a welcome reception, backyard party and celebrity chef cook-off.
Exhibitors on the UK pavilion include:
Certainly Wood
Certainly Wood is exhibiting for the first time and will have a range of its natural firelighters under the Flamers and KindleFlamer brands. The latter is patented, providing a unique opportunity to sell a firelighter that enables fire lighting without the need for kindling – the ultimate firelighter. The products come in a range of pack sizes to suit all retailers and they are not only perfect for log fires, but charcoal barbecues too.
