In this episode we welcome Julie and Karin from Hyve Group, the company behind some of the world's biggest events and trade shows, including landmarks of the gift industry, Spring & Autumn Fair. Today however, we only lightly touch on those events as we were keen to focus on their brand new wholesale market place that launched in May. It's been a roaring success so far, and no surprise - Hyve hold great trust within the industry and are perfectly positioned to match buyers to suppliers.
