Home Hardware Stores Ltd. is planning an in-person 2022 Fall Market. It will take place Sept. 23 to 25 at the Enercare Centre at Toronto’s CNE exhibition grounds.
The shows have historically been held at Home Hardware’s own distribution centre in St. Jacobs, Ont. But clearing out the warehouse for the show has become too disruptive, says the company.
Amid the pandemic’s outbreak, the company pivoted to a virtual format for its semi-annual Dealer Markets. It said in a release it will continue to monitor the public health situation and adapt its plans to comply with all regulations.
“Our markets have always been much more than trade shows – they are an opportunity to build friendships, share ideas and create deep connections across our dealer network and with our suppliers,” said Rob Wallace, VP for retail operations.
