Punch Partnerships is launching its fifth year of UK wide roadshows, aimed at getting more Partners than ever through the doors to help them boost their businesses.

Operations director, Kevin Georgel, explains: “Last year’s events were record breaking.  We were joined by 2,775 Partners - a 32% increase on previous years and we’re aiming to break that record again.”
 
Launching in Edinburgh on 6th October, this year’s road shows will move on to Newcastle, Leicester, Birmingham, Chester, Bolton, London, Leeds, Exeter, Bristol and Newmarket.

The roadshows, which are now widely recognised as the best in the industry, will bring together a broad range of drinks and food exhibitors and top deals on best selling brands.  Many of the brand owners will also be offering on-the-day only special deals, plus a range of top competition prizes.

New for this year will also be a series of business building seminars on topics such as food offer development, successful pub marketing and training courses designed to help Partners improve their profit margins.

Kevin Georgel continues: “Our Partners tell us that they genuinely get value out of these shows.  The atmosphere and buzz they create is extremely positive and the benefits of getting Partners, Punch teams and suppliers together under one roof to share ideas and best practice is invaluable.”

Kevin adds: “In this extremely challenging trading environment our Partners need to offer versatility to meet changing consumer needs.  These roadshows are designed to give them ideas and support that helps them make that difference, to stand apart and succeed.”
