Applications will be sent to the buyer after 7th July. Applications are sent to the buyer in the order that they were received.

You’ll receive an email confirmation from Jotform when you submit your application. Please check your spam before enquiring with the team.

You can’t change your application but you can resubmit. If you want to change something, simply resubmit your application and the team will remove the old one. Please note that the team will always submit the latest application received from you.

After submitting your application, sit back and relax! You can also start preparing for a potential pitch and look into the other features of the Festival this year and how you can make the most of it.

If your application has been successful, you’ll hear from us on 10th July with details of your specific pitching time slot. If you have secured multiple pitches, you’ll receive individual emails for each one. Don’t forget to check your spam in case there are any hiding in there!

If you don’t get any pitches, don’t worry! There are plenty of other opportunities to engage with buyers at the Festival including the Tasting Panel, the Indie Walkway and the retailer stands in the marketplace. Unfortunately due to the high number of applications we receive, we aren’t able to share any feedback.

You’ll have just ten minutes with the buyer, so it’s worth thinking about how you can prepare a short pitch that covers who you are, what the products are and how you can benefit the buyer. We’d recommend leaving plenty of time for questions from the buyer and time to arrange a follow up plan with them.
