We have a great deal of pride in our brand and have worked hard to make our business successful. STAG gives us all the benefits of membership without sacrificing our autonomy.
Right from day 1 when we opened 4 years ago the support from STAG has been invaluable. In particular, access to the brands, negotiating discounts, reducing admin plus of course the excellent trade show each November. I would strongly recommend any independent to join STAG.
STAG are constantly looking for ways to give us the edge over the competition particularly from the large multiples, who have marketing budgets we just can't match.
STAG has helped to open and supported numerous new customer relationships for Gelert which otherwise, we would not have had access to. This has yielded substantial new opportunities for our ever expanding business and has enabled us to trade effectively and efficiently with independent retailers who perhaps otherwise would have been inaccessible to us.
STAG is a progressive and dynamic buying group that works very hard on behalf of its members and retailers. Freedom will bring the same dynamics to the outdoor market and will be a great success.
