GIMA to run Buyer Connect day with Homebase
 

Following on from the huge success of Buyer Connect at Glee, GIMA is organising a similar event for its members to pitch their ideas to Homebase.

Taking place on January 23, GIMA members will have the opportunity to meet some really influential buyers at Homebase who have range responsibility. Suppliers will be required to work to a tight brief to ensure that both buyers and sellers gain maximum potential from their meetings.

GIMA Director, Neil Gow, suggested that demand for appointments is expected to be high as there is still opportunity for Homebase to find lines which they can retail across their multiple channels in spring 201 as well as the retailer making plans for their 2015 ranges.

He also commented that based upon the very positive experience of Buyer Connect at Glee in 2013, the event will be replicated at the 2014 Glee which takes place in September in the new halls at the NEC. It will be extended to run over two days rather than just one, with a further international buyers event running on the Sunday of Glee.
