Dealer group BLOC will host a series of regional meetings across the UK in March.
The events are aimed at helping member dealers make better use of their group membership through updates, discussion and peer networking. BLOC said the sessions will provide industry insights, direct access to the group’s leadership team and opportunities for independent resellers to share experiences and challenges.
According to BLOC, the roadshow comes against a difficult start to the year for parts of the dealer channel, with the group positioning the meetings as part of its wider support programme for members.
Sales Director Alex Stone said the sessions will also be used to gather feedback from dealers as well as outline the support available through BLOC’s supplier partnerships and programmes. He pointed to the group’s relationships with wholesalers VOW and Antalis, as well as its own brand Initiative range, which is available through multiple distribution routes, including direct supply.
BLOC added that dealers unable to attend the regional meetings will have a further opportunity to engage at its first national conference, scheduled for 18 June at the Crowne Plaza in Stratford-upon-Avon.
