The ultimate destination for Convenience retailers
About the Expo
The Convenience & Impulse Expo is the most significant trade event in the Australian Petrol and Convenience calendar, a position it has maintained since inception more than 30 years ago. Uniquely in this industry, the expo is open to suppliers and retailers from all banners and brands, providing unmatched opportunities for business building and relationship development.
It is the leading destination for smart Convenience retailers wanting to discover new products, gain industry knowledge and make important connections to grow and improve their business.
C&I Expo alternates between Sydney and Melbourne each year, with exhibitors from across the country and Asia Pacific showcasing products and services specifically for Convenience business owners and operators.
The C&I Industry Symposium headlines the expo, giving attendees access to thought leaders and respected experts who share insights, case studies, data, predictions, and trends affecting the industry. Day one of the show traditionally concludes with relaxed networking drinks, to which all exhibitors and registered visitors are warmly invited.
Visit C&I Expo in October for a chance to win goods and services for your store, valued over $50,000 rrp. Generously donated by exhibitors at C&I Expo 2023, you can view all the products up for grabs at the Giveaway stand. Be sure to check it out!
Each morning prior to the expo opening, retailers and suppliers can attend the C&I Industry Symposium. Our line-up of expert speakers will deliver presentations on issues affecting the P&C industry today filled with insights and data, future trends, and innovations. Most importantly, you will learn how these relate directly to your business and how you can implement changes to stay at the forefront of convenience retailing.
Tickets are $30 for one morning session, or $50 for both, and can be purchased during registration.
