The Off Price Show 2013






































With little more than a month until the doors are opened to the UK’s leading fashion stock event, esteemed wholesale companies and a wave of exciting new exhibitors will display unrivalled offers over two days of invigorating trading.
Following the growing success of past events, the 23rd successful edition of the Off-Price Show has been expanded to incorporate a bigger and better range of stock, including high quality apparel, footwear, accessories with major brands, exclusive lines, sportswear giants, ex-chainstore ranges and niche labels at a massive 70% off normal wholesale prices.
The show is held over the two days on 22nd-23rd September 2013, and in addition to a comprehensive trading platform, there are additional benefits for buyers who attend. FREE Business Improvement seminars will help visitors to fight the current challenges, stay ahead of competitors, gain knowledge and advantageous tips from our expert speakers. There are also quality catering facilities where a selection of food and beverages will be served, enabling a relaxed forum for meetings between visits to the show floor.
Event Director, Buzz Carter, told MTN, “The Autumn show will be excellent for buyers as we have a number of new companies alongside show favourites. We will have the largest sportswear selection for a few years alongside traditional casual and formal fashion wear, together with great designer brands, denim and outdoor wear.”
Other suppliers showcasing this September include Eles Clothing and Trafford Wholesale who can provide a vast range of ex-chainstore stock from the biggest names on the high street.



Leading manufacturers such as Design House have the capacity to supply additional end of season stock, cancelled orders, returns and surplus high fashion apparel that are developed for some of the biggest names in the industry such as M&S, Topshop, Next and Austin Reed.
Major wholesalers will be supplying current and past season stock, from top designer names such as Armani, Gucci and Calvin Klein, while at the sporting end of the spectrum, casual wear giants including Nike, Adidas and Reebok will be made available by long standing experienced suppliers such as Topgrade Sportswear and Ski and Sport.
Award winning, up-and-coming companies such as Room 31 Wholesale prove that with the right stock at the right prices, businesses can continue to flourish despite challenging times, with other successful companies such as Q Clothing expanding.
An expanded edition of the Off-Price Show set to be the best yet its lines to include more childrenswear, and consistently adding exciting new brands. Top quality unbranded imports and cut-label products will also be available as well as companies’ own labels.
This wide variety of products creates an ideal environment for retailers, market traders, wholesalers and ebayers to increase their profit margins and source collections from the best suppliers in the market. The majority of the products will be available from stock or short order. This flexibility means buyers do not have to place large forward orders and can adapt their offering to the seasons’ latest trends at a moment’s notice, while larger retail buyers will also be able to source substantial orders with pieces supplied by the thousands.
All who visit the Off-Price Show will see first hand the great bargains and discounts that are on offer, with an unmissable opportunity to meet new suppliers, network with colleagues and enhance business. Conveniently located at London’s Olympia, the event is situated very close to the M4 (with M25 interchange not far away), and easily reached by overground, underground and bus connections.

East Lindsey’s Markets are the Real Deal



EAST Lindsey’s three District Council-run markets have been given the thumbs up after a visit by Trading Standards officers.
Louth Market was visited by Trading Standards as part of the Real Deal scheme which aims to rid markets and carboot sales nationwide of counterfeit and illegal goods.
As a result of being given the all clear the three District Council-run markets in Horncastle, Louth and Spilsby have all earned all the Real Deal accreditation and signed up to a Markets’ Charter – recognising East Lindsey’s commitment to safe and fair trading at its local markets.

Council Portfolio Holder for Economic Regeneration, including Markets, Councillor Craig Leyland, said: “Markets are a great British tradition and the traders on our markets pride themselves in providing visitors with an exciting range of good quality products and produce.
“The Real Deal accreditation shows local people and visitors that when they buy an item from our markets they can rest assured they are buying from a market that does all it can to uphold the highest standards in trading.   We work closely with Trading Standards and welcome their visits to our markets at any time.”
The Real Deal campaign is a cross-sector partnership initiative involving local authority Trading Standards and local market operators – in this case Lincolnshire Trading Standards and East Lindsey District Council.
At the heart of the Real Deal campaign is the national Markets' Charter, which has been created in consultation with all the partners in the initiative and which sets out key principles for market operators, local authority trading standards services, industry and trademark representatives to sign up to and abide by.
