10 Reasons to visit the Retail Imaging Show 2009

1. It’s number one.
It’s the number one dealer only imaging event in the UK! After seeing record numbers attend the event in 2008, it has quickly become the ‘must attend’ event for any retailers looking at products from the imaging sector.

2. The Pixel Theatre!
This year, for the first time, we have designed an area for key manufacturers and suppliers to either introduce/demo new products, give guests an overview of what to expect in the next period (including the run up to Christmas) and most importantly - taking questions from the floor. Your opportunity to ask any questions that you may have regarding product, supply, price points…. Anything, to the people at the top! Details and timetable on the website.

3. 54 Exhibitors.
In one room, over one day giving guests a fantastic opportunity to source innovative/high margin products. A must for any retailer who wants to get the edge on their competitors. See many manufacturers and suppliers in a single day!

4. It’s exclusive!
Due to the nature of this event, there are only 500 tickets available
- when they’re gone, they’re gone. Tickets are priced at £17.50 and include lunch service (see reason 5) and refreshments all day. We do have a number of pre-paid tickets available but they’re going fast so get in touch on 0870 777 9778.
