Why Attend

One event, every corner of the sector

Whether you're opening your first venue, growing a group or looking for a supply partner, the people who can actually help are on the floor.

Meet Suppliers & Distributors

Talk directly to producers, brands and distributors with products on the market, not just a brochure and a phone number.

Cost & Efficiency Guidance

Sit down with specialists who can walk you through cutting energy, food waste and operating costs before you leave the hall.

New Operator Support

Straight answers on launching a venue — kit, suppliers, licensing and what to get right first — aimed at first-time operators.

New Product Launches

See new products, menus and technology before they reach general release, with the teams on hand to answer the detail.

Multi-Site & Expansion Growth

Meet the partners, franchises and advisors who help you open your next site or scale an existing operation.

Food Safety & Compliance

Food-safety, licensing and HR specialists answer questions on compliance, allergens and documentation in plain English.

Networking That Leads Somewhere

Two days of introductions with operators, suppliers, chefs and investors who are all in the room to do business.

National & International Exhibitors

Alongside UK suppliers, expect brands and producers from further afield with UK-facing ranges to show you.

Our Company

The team behind The Great British Hospitality Show

B2B Growth Hub runs The Great British Hospitality Show on behalf of a membership network built around one idea: businesses grow faster through direct contact than through marketing spend alone. We work with companies at every stage, from founders taking their first stand to suppliers who have exhibited with us for years, and our job is making sure the right people end up talking to each other.

That is really what the two days are for. Bring your business, meet the people who can help it grow, and leave with contacts you'll still be using next year.
