With just two weeks to go until the Bestway Retail Showcase 2026, Bestway is counting down to one of its most significant retail events, with strong anticipation building among attending retailers ahead of a day focussed on immediate commercial opportunity and supplier access and insights.
Taking place on Thursday 14 May at the Coventry Building Society Arena, this year’s event is set to build on record-breaking success, with last year’s event seeing an unprecedented number of promotional deals secured by attending retailers, delivering immediate margin gains and tangible in-store impact.
The annual showcase will bring together more than 120 supplier partners alongside the wholesaler’s retail team, offering independent retailers the opportunity to engage directly on category development, new product launches and in-store execution.
The event comes at a time when independent retailers are continuing to manage margin pressure and shifting shopper behaviour, with Bestway positioning the showcase as a forum for practical support and insight, alongside clear commercial opportunities.
Retailers attending this year’s Showcase will have access to an enhanced programme of exclusive, on-the-day deals, designed specifically to help independent retailers unlock greater profitability, drive footfall and stay competitive in an increasingly challenging market.
At a time when retailers are navigating ongoing cost pressures and evolving shopper behaviour, the Showcase offers a timely and practical route to improving margins and strengthening business performance.
From standout supplier promotions and category-led opportunities to tailored support and expert insight, the event is positioned as a powerful springboard for growth, helping retailers not just respond to market conditions, but get ahead of them.
Dawood Pervez, Managing Director at Bestway Wholesale, said:
“We know retailers need margin, not noise. This event delivers exactly that.
Last year set the benchmark and this year, we’ve gone even further.
“Our message to retailers is that if you’re serious about staying competitive, you need to be in the room. The deals, the suppliers, the opportunity on the day is real, immediate and not to be missed.”
