It was our first time showcasing our Training business at the North West Premier Business Fair. It was really worthwhile, the event was well organised and well attended. A great atmosphere with lots of friendly faces. It was brilliant to see so many different industries represented at the fair. I would recommend both exhibiting at or attending the next next one in March 2022 if you can !

absolutely brilliant, we exhibited this year in October not knowing how everything would go as it would be our first time, the atmosphere was amazing the people and staff of the venue were easy to talk to and made you feel welcome, its a fantastic way to see all different types of local businesses in your local area all under the same roof, it really does pay off not only for the company's exhibiting but also for the general public to find a real local company and getting to talk to them first hand in a normal setting. would recommend anyone and everyone 5****

This was our 3rd time having a stand at the North West Premier Business Fair. Another great event!
Lots of fantastic businesses and delegates. We made some great business contacts and also found the event really helpful for brand awareness.
Will definitely be booking another stand for the next event.

A BIG THANK YOU to all the team for organising yet again a fantastic exhibition. (you never fail).
After the 2 yrs of lockdown it was so lovely to meet a wide range of like minded business people.
Working in an office with 2 people it is good to get out in the field and see how everyone has adjusted their
business model and their desire to grow their business.
Many thanks

We were apprehensive as to what to expect with this being the first event we have attended since the Covid pandemic - we were pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed connecting with businesses face to face - it was very well organised and communication was fantastic leading up to the event and during the evening.
There were plenty of new faces and we have already arranged meetings with those who made enquiries about our services - we can't wait for the next one! Thank you so much to the BestofBury team - Jane Hawarden, Horsfield & Smith Chartered Accountants

I attended my first North West Premier Business Fair last week and must say it was fantastic and extremely well organised. It was lovely to meet Bury based companies and sample the foods, play the games and have an overall fun time whilst making new connections. Thank you very much & shall look forward to the next one.

A great business expo that is always beneficial to us. Well organised, superb venue and layout. Great way to market our business and network with other people all at the same time. Absolute Win Win.

It was difficult to know what to expect of the Business Fair given that it was the first such event we had attended since before the Covid-19 pandemic, however, it is safe to say that it did not disappoint.
The event was very well organised, with plenty of information and updates being provided to exhibitors in advance. On the day there was an army of people on hand to help with setting up for the event , as well as dealing with any queries during the course of the event itself.
The Fair provided a great opportunity for business to re-connect after the pandemic, and the atmosphere was one of relief to be able to see people in person again, and excitement for the future business that has been gained from exhibiting

I have been a Best of Bury Member for nearly 2 years now and was in the Business Academy before that.
Being part of the Best of Bury is a very proud thing for us at Senior Waste Removals, it shows we are the best at what we do in the area and really is a prestigious thing to be part of.
It has helped us massively become more established in and around the area.
Nothing is too much trouble for them, I have needed help/advice on several occasions and the team at Best of Bury have been there and have given me very good advice.
I have gotten to know Phil and Debi very well over the last 3 years and they are like part of my family!!!
Keep up the good work guys and I really can never see us not being a part of this great business community
Thanks a million guys.

I just wanted to say a big thank you to Phil (and the team at The Best of Bury - both past and present) for the advice, assistance and continuous work they do to promote our business, Munro-Greenhalgh Ltd, to other members and the whole of the business community of Bury.
Since our MBO in 2016 our business has grown year or year - one of the key factors has been raising our profile and brand awareness. Being members of The Best of Bury was and continues to be important in achieving this.
I look forward to working with you.

We’ve always been happy with the fabulous service and support provided by the bestofbury, but since going into lockdown they have become invaluable to my business. As well as continuing to promote my business as usual, they have regularly kept me informed and signed posted me to the main avenues of support that have been available. The Ask The Experts hours hosted by bestofbury have been excellent, providing opportunities to hear advice and have our questions answered by industry experts, in the key areas that have been relevant to the current Covid situation.
At a time when it would have been easy to sit back and feel sorry for myself, Debi, Phil and Laura have always been upbeat and positive and have truly helped myself and my business during these challenging times. It’s a great comfort to know they are only a phone call away and always willing to help.
Thanks to you all for your efforts, energy and continued support!

I have been with the Best of Bolton for 4-5 months now and so far it's been fantastic. Being a member gives you the confidence and opportunity to connect with lots of other businesses and potential clients which has opened up another avenue for us. They offer a lot of support and i would recommend 100%

First time we have exhibited at this event, Brilliant!!! Made some great contacts, which will hopefully also lead to new clients.
Great atmosphere and well organised and promoted which lead to lots of visitors attending and a fantastic opportunity to connect with the other local businesses that were exhibiting. Will definitely be exhibiting again next year :)

I just wanted to say, what an excellent event it was. We got some great leads for Bury Venues and loads of interest in sponsorship for Bury Pride. It seemed really busy and all the people I spoke to had only positive feedback and seemed to do very well themselves.
Thanks again for inviting us to come along, we both had a great time.

Congratulations on organising, running, hosting and maximising the North West Premier Business Fair at the Stables Country Club yesterday.
You provide a great platform for NW businesses to meet, network, share knowledge and, ultimately, do business together.
I feel that the balance is right between exhibitors and visitors and that the seminars and speed networking provide the right environment for networking.
You also get the balance right between B2B / B2C and charitable organisations – well done to you and your staff!
