The organisers of the Outdoor Trade Show (OTS) and the organiser of ROKS (Scotland) are pleased to announce the launch of a new outdoor industry trade event which will be known as the “OTS Northern Roadshow”.

The event will take place at the Edinburgh Corn Exchange, Murrayfield, Edinburgh from 8th – 9th January 2019 and offers brands and sales agents a cost effective opportunity to showcase new product ranges to retail buyers and outdoor & snowsport industry related organisations.

The extension of OTS, North of the Border and the collaboration with ROKS (Scotland) follows on from the incorporation of ROKS (Kendal) earlier this year into the main summer OTS event at EventCity, Manchester.

Commenting on the change, former ROKS (Scotland) organiser, Sam Fernando from Keela said, “I’m pleased to have built a successful trade event and I’m very keen to keep on enhancing the exhibitor experience and that the roadshow event continues to evolve for everyone’s benefit.  It makes sense to have the involvement and expertise of OTS going forward and I’m pleased to be handing over to Alasdair and Marta from MCS who will take things forward in the future.”

OTS organiser, Marta Williams hopes that the January event will attract visitors from around Scotland and the North of England, “The OTS Northern Roadshow provides an opportunity for local retail buyers and we aim to build on the success of the roadshow that Sam has already created.  Bringing the OTS brand to the table gives it industry endorsement, visibility and credibility and demonstrates the further unification of trade events under one banner.”

Previous exhibitors will be contacted directly and further information and details will be available shortly on the OTS website at www.outdoortradeshow.com
