Leaders of the national fabricator Listers are inviting retail companies to attend an open day at the business’ showroom in April. Two open days have been organised with the aim of sharing product developments, business advice and specialist skills. The open days are due to take place on 25 and 26 April at Listers’ Stoke-on-Trent-based showroom.
Talks, demonstrations, workshops and factory tours are scheduled to take place on each of the open days. Networking opportunities are also to be offered in Listers’ canteen area, where systems companies are set to have exhibition-style stands and break out areas.
Roy Frost, Listers’ managing director, said: “Giving our customers the best possible service is our number one priority. These open days are extension of that. You will be hard pushed to find so much product information and valuable advice all held under one roof in the UK.”
All of Listers’ customer-facing staff are set to be on hand to talk about the latest product developments at the company, including the Sheerline lift-and-slide patio door. Roy added: “This will be alongside the new Sheerline Prestige casement window that offers a flush sash option and a U-value of 0.9W/m2K when triple glazed.”
Systems houses represented at the event are to include: Residence Collection, Veka Halo, Sheerline, Reynaers and Eurocell. Representatives of other brands are due to present talks about the latest industry issues. Those brands include: Kubu Smart; GripCore (DoorCo), Glazpart, Ultion, Quickslide, Lasco PR and Marketing, Full Circle Marketing and Business Pilot.
The event is set to be split into several zones, including the ‘Knowledge Quarter’ and the ‘Practical Quarter’. Visitors should be able to tailor their experience by attending specialist seminars on a range of topics such as digital marketing, updates to building regulations and tips on how to correctly build a Sheerline lantern before installation, according to Listers’ leaders.
The Listers team is also set to provide a free breakfast and lunch to open day attendees. Those who register for the event beforehand are to be offered one of Listers’ goody bags, which is expected to include giveaways from each of the trade fabricator’s suppliers.
Customers are also advised to book for specific seminars at the time of registering, to avoid disappointment. To book, email info@listerwindows.co.uk.
