Schmidt headlines inaugural Hardware Conference

Generously supported by ten leading industry suppliers,  Ames True Temper, Bostik, Dulux, Glennon Brothers, Gyproc, Irish Cement, Kingspan, Sanbra Fyffe, Tegral and Wavin, HAI is able to bring you the first dedicated conference targeted at hardware retailers and builders merchants.

At the recent launch of the Conference, HAI President Hugh O’Donnell commented “As the shoots of economic recovery begin to emerge, this is the opportunity for the hardware sector to come together to reflect on what lessons can be learned from the downturn and to identify what opportunities may lie ahead and how to best exploit them.

“The Hardware Conference will mix the informal with the serious, with plenty of time allocated for networking. It will kick-off on the evening of April 6th with an informal dinner and entertainment for delegates, followed by a packed day on April 7th during which leading Irish and international speakers will discuss a range of relevant topics. I look forward to what I believe will be an enjoyable and useful event for both merchants and suppliers and would encourage everyone in our industry to attend.”
