Stand design tips for Speciality Food Festival

• Let buyers taste. Sampling sells speciality food; plan a hygienic tasting counter with water and chilled storage.

• Tell the origin story. Provenance and craft matter to this audience; use graphics on where and how the product is made.

• Show retail-ready packs. Shelf-style displays help retail buyers picture the product in store.

• Plan food safety services. Fridges, sinks and power for cooking demos need ordering early.

Planning timeline

• 10–12 weeks before: confirm space and brief, start design

• 6–8 weeks before: final design, submit drawings and service orders

• 3–4 weeks before: fabrication and graphics

• Build-up days: on-site installation and handover before opening; dismantling after the show closes
