It’s not just the STAG Buying Show exhibitors that have been singing its praises, here’s a selection of comments from the buying group’s retail members:
“Thank you for hosting an excellent buying show – our first with STAG. I can imagine it takes months of effort and consideration to arrange something so well organised and seamless, especially for such a large amount of people. The hotel was great and their excellent service made ‘the business of doing business’ so easy.”
Lesley and Peter Maynard, In Training Sports, Haslemere, Surrey.
“Very good show – well worth the trip.”
Patrick Strachan, Berkeley Sports, Farnham, Surrey.
“The STAG show this year was excellent – great turnout of suppliers, great hotel and service. Thanks again to all concerned with organising the show, it is crucial that it carries on.”
Mike Thornton, Mikes Sportsworld, Lancaster.
“Thank you to all the staff at STAG for making us so welcome. It was a very worthwhile trip, as it gave us an insight into what’s happening in the trade and also meeting other retailers for a chat and hopefully making friends and long-time relationships.”
Con and Pat O’Neill, O’Neill Bros Sports Supplies, Clonakilty, Co Cork Ireland.
“What a good show. It was very enjoyable, very laid back and very friendly. Some really good deals. Ricky, Ward and all of the STAG team deserve a big pat on the back.”
Mark Burnett, Warmlake Sports, Erith, Kent.
“I just wanted to thank you and the team for what was a very enjoyable show – and the hospitality was superb.”
