The National Hardware Show, set for May 1-3 in Las Vegas, will offer a new feature this year: a Product Review & Vetting Program to help vendors find takers for new items on the market.
Each vendor that registers for the program will have the opportunity to submit one product to up to three buyers, who will review and consider the product for their programs.
Vendors will receive feedback from buyers in their product category to help them hone further marketing plans.
Buyers signed up to participate in the program include Distribution America, United Hardware, Jensen, Ace Hardware, Handy Hardware, PRO Group, Lancaster and others. Products in the following categories are eligible for the program: Lawn & Garden, Homewares, Tailgate, Hardware & Tools, Paint & Accessories, Storage & Organization, and Plumbing & Electrical.
