Meet the buyer events and supplier-ready training
Talk to some of Barnet’s leading main contractors about current and upcoming projects.
Our Meet the Buyer events are a great opportunity for local small and medium enterprises to introduce their products and services to buyers working on Barnet’s development projects. These events are regularly used by Barnet developers to promote their procurement opportunities and requirements, to find new suppliers, connect with old ones or to lay the foundations for future partnerships.
