Quotes from past exhibitors:
“I thought the show was well planned and thought out do believe you have something to build on. If you could double the amount of exhibitors next year you will create discussion in the industry and provide a focus for own label in the UK. ” Ross Brown, Huegli UK Ltd.
“SUMSUM found it a very efficient introduction platform towards the challenging British Market... we had a very fruitful show & are in a very intensive process with three of the top 7 British retailers,” said Yoram Netzer CEO of Sumsum – Health from Nature.
“The show was good, you can quote me on that.” Joachim Koch, Marketing & Sales Manager Feintechnik GmbH Eisfeld
"The Own Label Show has presented a different experience to other trade shows we have attended over the years," said James Smith, MD of Shepley Spring. "... we met with a number of buyers from major retailers and have been asked to quote for three sizeable and worthwhile pieces of business."
"The Own Label Show offered us the opportunity to discuss our products with key buyers and brokers in the UK", said Andrew Gluck, co-owner of Hopi Popi. "In contrast to other shows the buyers are unhurried and interested in discussing products at length."
