Retail Design Expo 2015 is the exciting new event from Legend Exhibitions Ltd, the organisers of Retail Business Technology Expo (RBTE), Europe’s largest and fastest growing retail technology solutions show. The events will be co-located and together serve the total needs of multichannel retailers looking for new ideas and inspiration.
With predicted total sales of well over £400 billion in 2013, retail is the UK’s No1 service industry. Retailers from all sectors, both bricks and clicks, are vying for the consumer purse, so creating exactly the right customer experience is critical in driving both footfall and encouraging purchase.
A retailer’s look, feel and function are key drivers with huge investment continually being made in design and fit-outs. Every single detail has to provide the customer with a seamless and stimulating experience, and that involves a myriad of products, services and people.
In view of this, an annual event that brings together all the many collaborating partners in this enormous industry is long overdue. An annual event where they can meet, buy, network, learn, be inspired and enhance their business, presenting exhibitors with a powerful platform for winning new clients.
So, welcome to the launch of Retail Design Expo 2015.
innovation and inspiration in retail desiGn and brandinG under one roof
IntroducIng
the retail desiGn industry has lacked a recoGnised forum for many years now. retail desiGn expo offers just such a forum…a chance to share ideas, trends and opinions with our competitors and collaborators.

the biG idea
Retail Design Expo 2015 will put thousands of retailers, their design partners and brand owners in touch with hundreds of potential new suppliers. These include top retail designers, shop fitters, display and equipment manufacturers and merchandising providers through to point-of-sale specialists, leading-edge furniture manufacturers, lighting and flooring companies.
In addition to retailers and brands, the event is also aimed at those decision-makers and influencers in the hospitality, travel and leisure sectors.
Although taking place in London, the scale and global content of the event will attract attendees from well beyond the UK shores especially from mainland Europe.
Retail Design Expo 2015 will join together all branches of the retail industry through a host of exciting features including:
• A major exhibition
• An extensive conference and seminar series led by the Who’s Who in retail design
• Theatres showcasing awe-inspiring and innovative designs
• Workshops with leading designers, architects and retailers
• Roundtables and breakfast briefings
• Design student awards
• Store tours
• Endless networking opportunities
The perfect opportunity for both buyers and suppliers alike.
‘retail desiGn one of most important sectors of desiGn. it has been the catalyst for many brilliant contemporary desiGners and throuGh it we learn about relationships between space and objects and about human enGaGement in different contexts.
i am supportinG retail desiGn expo because it is a pioneer, workinG to re-establish retail desiGn as a creative venture and to encouraGe debate and dialoGue from interestinG corners. retail needs to be riGorous, poetic and flamboyant and to use sensitivity and psycholoGy in its approach to celebratinG the object it is sellinG while nurturinG the customer that is buyinG it, and retail desiGn expo is brinGinG a new focus to these issues.’

who’s behind it?
In 2015, Retail Design Expo will be co-located with RBTE, but will have its own identity, exhibitors, features, workshops, conference and seminar programme, design student awards and special features. It will attract thousands of its own unique visitors from the UK and globally but will also benefit from the crossover of visitors from RBTE with responsibility for operations, merchandising and marketing, for example, and therefore involved in purchasing decisions affecting the in-store customer experience. The two shows together offering the retail, hospitality, travel and leisure industries the whole range of solutions embracing the virtual and physical retail offering.
some share a view that shops should be used as warehouses, but you’ll never see john lewis takinG this approach. our beautiful shops are at the centre of our omnichannel strateGy. we want our customers to love shoppinG with us and we have passionate and informed partners who can help and advise customers. our stores, and more than 250 waitrose supermarkets, are vital as click-and-collect points, but we want people to stay and have a wonderful in-store experience when they collect an online order.
we have beauty spas and Great places to eat in our shops and we are constantly lookinG for ways to use desiGn and technoloGy to enhance the shoppinG experience.
