CANTON -- The SUNY Canton Small Business Development Center (SBDC) and Adirondack North Country Association (ANCA) will present "Strategies for a Successful Wholesale Show" from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 27, in SUNY Canton's Richard W. Miller Campus Center Room 212.
The two agencies are gearing up to help area businesses prepare to sell their goods wholesale at Buyer Days North on Sunday, Oct. 23.
Buyer Days North is hosted by ANCA and the St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce in conjunction with the chamber's retail Craft, Food & Wine Show at Clarkson University's Cheel Arena.
"Many participants in the Craft, Food and Wine show have been successful at the retail event year after year," said Brooke Rouse, Executive Director for the St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce. "For the second year in a row, we will also provide them the chance to step into the wholesale market."
Workshop topics will include how to evaluate if wholesaling is right for businesses, wholesale price and policies, how to prepare for a wholesale show, and booth design tips.
By partnering with ANCA, the chamber is able to offer a wholesale trade show with a proven track record. "ANCA has been hosting Adirondack Buyer Days for 30 years, drawing buyers from gift shops, restaurants, museum shops, farm stands and other independent retail outlets across Northern New York and New England," said Lauren Richard, Buyer Days Show Coordinator for ANCA
"The show is a great opportunity for vendors to access new markets, and for retailers to buy directly from artisans and learn the stories of their unique wares."
"Strategies for a Successful Wholesale Show" is open to any businesses that wish to learn about wholesaling.
The workshop is free for vendors who are registered and paid for the Craft, Food & Wine Show.
Cost is $10 for members of ANCA and the St. Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce as well as SBDC clients, and $15 for all others.
