As a dedicated event for the independent retail sector, the Direct2Store Expo brings together retailers, store owners, department managers, and suppliers from across Australia for a high-impact showcase of products, innovation, and industry connection. This is your opportunity to meet directly with suppliers, logistics providors, tech experts, explore new ranges, access show-only deals, and build the relationships that support stronger buying and better business outcomes throughout the year.
For 2026, the Direct2Store Expo will be hosted at the ICC Sydney, bringing the entire directs community together under one roof for 2 action packed days. Whether you operate a single store or manage a multi-site group, the Expo delivers the insights, products, and supplier partnerships that help independent retailers stay competitive in a fast-changing market.
Join us Wednesday to Friday, 6th–8th May 2026, and be part of the largest direct-to-retailer supplier showcase in Australia.
