The Winners and Highly Commended products will be announced at The Gift Awards, to be held at London’s Royal Lancaster Hotel on 16 May 2024, continuing to bring together both sides
of our amazing industry in one room to celebrate the best in retail and the best in product.
The Live Judging Event held at Spring Fair for the third-year running was a resounding success with it being held for four days and attracted attention throughout the shows from not just the judges but all visitors alike who were using the feature area as a stop off point to find the best new exciting products on offer, really showcasing the brands that were exhibiting and those that weren’t giving them a hug opportunity. Chris Workman, PR & marketing
manager of The GA said of the live judging “It was great to be back at Spring Fair to live judge again and we could not have been happier with the area allowing the products to shine and the attention they deserve. We also excitingly signed up a potential 80 new judges to the awards from across the retail spectrum, to judge in next year’s awards.
“What was also great to hear was the traffic that our shortlisted exhibitors got to their stand from being on display with us in the judging area, at an already bustling Spring Fair.”
