Registration is now open for Nisa retailers to book their place at the convenience group’s annual trade show.
The Nisa Expo will again be taking place virtually, with a range of new opportunities added to the schedule.
The two-day show, held on 28 & 29 September, aims to provide Nisa retailers and suppliers with the opportunity to interact, help each other grow their businesses, get the latest news and advice from suppliers, and learn more about the benefits of being part of Nisa and the Co-op.
Event Manager Jenny Potts said: “Our first virtual event last year was a great success and this year it will be bigger and better with more opportunities for engagement with suppliers as well as Nisa and Co-op colleagues.”
The popular Co-op led category talks will return to the event along with access to exclusive on the day deals, panel discussions and live Q&As, along with networking opportunities and an annual awards ceremony.
In addition, several new elements have been added to the 2021 line-up to make the virtual event even more valuable to delegates. One-to-one appointments with suppliers and Nisa staff can now take place for longer, with no minimum or maximum number of appointments required.
There will also be an opportunity to take part in Nisa and supplier initiatives to help retailers drive incremental growth in specific categories.
To improve user experience, all technical elements can be tested in advance to avoid issues on the day and partners will also be invited to take part in live voting for some of the categories in the annual awards.
Potts added: “We felt it was important to improve and in new features to the 2021 show, based on feedback and learnings from last year and so we hope our partners and suppliers will like what we’ve done.”
