Hong Kong gift fair benefits newsXpress members

IMG_1215The October Hong Kong Gift Fair running this week has been terrific for newsxpress for the sourcing of innovative products as well as for the refreshing relationships with several suppliers. Best of all, the fair provided insights to trends about to hit in Australia, giving newsXpress an advantage with knowledge and relationships through which to leverage the trends.

newsXpress visits overseas trade shows to reach beyond what is usually on show in Australia. This has helped the group be first to engage with a range of valuable trends in recent years.

newsXpress leads with initiative leveraging its small business network

One of the biggest challenges for small independent retailers is to act as one in customer facing engagement. newsXpress on Monday last week launched a fully integrated technology platform that connects newsXpress members around a range of international brands and in a way that leverages its growing network of stores competitively against individual retailers as well as national retailers.

This initiative from newsXpress is not an announcement or promise, it has been delivered. It is already driving shopper traffic for newsXpress businesses.

We’re not sharing specific details here as those targeted by the new platform are consumers and they are engaging already.

This is another newsXpress difference.
