Dear Valued Trade Partner,

After the challenges of Covid in 2020 and 2021, we are extremely excited to welcome our Trade and Retail
Partners back to the 2022 Show which is to be held on 19, 20 & 21 October 2022.

Over the past two years we have spent considerable time reflecting on how we can deliver the most effective
Show experience for our Partners and Show visitors. We are confident that all of our changes will lift trade
traffic, increase exposure to your trade site and create a more streamlined layout for the attendees of the
Show!

Trade is an integral part of the Hawke’s Bay A&P Show and we are really excited to implement these changes
to maximise your investment as a vendor with us. If you have any questions please give our Trade Manager,
Samantha a call or email.
