What does it take to organise the UK’s biggest and boldest flooring trade event? In this week’s episode, we go behind the scenes with Suzy from The Flooring Show. From unexpected customs dramas to sparkly bikini mishaps and bold new plans to grow the show, Suzy lifts the curtain on what really happens when you put the entire flooring industry under one roof. 🎤📍

What’s Inside:

• Why this year’s show promises to be the biggest and most diverse yet
• 
  
• Suzy’s journey from fashion stylist to flooring show director (via spreadsheets and gaffes!)
• 
  
• New exhibitors to watch, from Kährs and Kährs Cork to a wave of tech brands like Roomvo, Computers for Flooring, Masterpiece, and more
• 
  
• How to get the most out of the show, especially if you’re a retailer or contractor coming solo
• 
  
• The unforgettable story of bikinis, beer, and a very awkward intervention
•
