ENERGY MANAGEMENT PAVILION@SHOP - NEW FOR 2009
 |
The rise in energy costs have lead all retailers to question the sources of energy they currently use and more importantly the efficiency of the equipment which they operate within their stores. The Energy Management Pavilion within Shop will ask retailers to question their current providers and point the way towards real alternatives and management systems which will result in concrete financial savings. |
FRESH@SHOP
| Changing customer buying habits and increased dining at home has lead to an increase in the purchase of fresh produce. Shop 2009 will play host to a showcase of leading suppliers of fresh and healthy produce. Shop 2009 will be the perfect location for suppliers wishing to showcase their offering within this growing sector. |
