This month (19-20 November), NBG will host its annual conference in Scotland for the first time. The event is taking place in Glasgow and will see hundreds of delegates arrive at the Scottish Event Campus.

Over the two days delegates will have access to exclusive deals, a first-look at new products and the opportunity to network with like-minded partners and suppliers from the builders merchant industry. This year’s theme is ‘Maximise Sales’ which both the Supplier Summit and exhibition will focus on.

The end of the conference will be marked with the highly anticipated gala dinner and the results of the annual NBG Supplier Awards. There will be an award for each of NBG’s Category Management Teams (CMTs) as well as worthy winners of exciting new categories being announced.

NBG is proudly supporting two charities, with proceeds from fundraising activity from across the event, including football matches and an auction, being split between The Rainy Day Trust and Macmillan Cancer Support.

NBG managing director Nick Oates said: “We can’t wait to welcome our partners, suppliers and special guests to the SEC later this month. As always, we have a jam-packed couple of days planned, including inspirational key-note speeches, the launch of some exciting new products and plenty of opportunities for our partners and suppliers to grow their networks.

“We have a few new faces joining us this year, both suppliers and partners, and we’re very much looking forward to bringing them into the fold."
