Not often do brand owners and retailers get an opportunity to meet a whole team of category buyers at same time!
It was without doubt the highlight for me personally inspite of an early start to travel to London for 9am it was worth the time and effort.
The event was ‘Meet The Retailers’ organised by Team CEW👏
The introduction by CEW moderator Catherine Blossom followed by a presentation by Eric Mills from NielsenIQ on overall market growth.
The panel of Sainsbury’s beauty team shared the insights on the current market trends, strategy and the criteria to meet for the brands to be listed which is customer focused and much more!
What was informative was the panel from each category buyer hair care, skincare, personal care, wellness opened up to interact with the audience.
It was a pleasure to
meet Hannah Wilson Lucie Peach Donna Hudson Alex Jefferson
The buzz in the room was exciting and open to conversations afterwards was on one to one with the buyers.
As a brand owner to have this interaction was invaluable!
Thank you to CEW for organising such a fantastic event at a pleasant venue Soho Hotel.
