For coastal retailers, attending Surf Expo means access to new products, emerging trends and the ability to make confident, informed purchasing decisions — all in one place.
What sets the show apart is how easy it is for buyers to maximize their time. The free “Connect with Brands” matchmaking tool allows retailers to search exhibitors, request appointments and plan their schedules before they arrive to the show. In addition, Buyer Relations Manager Brooke Herndon works directly with buyers to ensure they connect with brands that truly fit their stores.
As Tiffani Rothe of Food Pantry in Honolulu shared, “Connecting with vendors face-to-face and seeing products firsthand is so much better than browsing online or through a catalog. We discovered new lines we’re excited to try in our stores.”
