Virgin Atlantic
A fantastic event organised by TickEat - a wonderful opportunity to share insights and provide coaching so that we can continue to attract and support vendors in entering the aviation space. The focus on Virgin Atlantic was outstanding as it allowed all of us to hone in on Virgin's brand and what their needs are, allowing for really targeted and appropriate pitches. Well done and thank you so much!

This has to be the BEST Meet The Buyer Event ever. Huge thank you to Heerum Fleary and the guys at TICKEAT. Kudos to you Heerum, I say it often understanding some people disagree... business is people, this is the perfect display! Buyers are genuinely relaxed and interested, and a great opportunity for CUZENA in the travel sector space. Meet other brands in the same space...Follow up meetings arranged, exciting times. Thank you.

I recently attended a dinner event organized by Tickeat. The experience was nothing short of exceptional. The event provided a perfect setting for meaningful interactions, making it enjoyable and highly productive. The dinner itself was delightful, but what truly stood out was the thoughtfully created environment, and the attention to every detail was evident in every aspect, from the welcoming ambience to the seamless facilitation of conversations with the buyers. I left the evening feeling grateful for the opportunity to engage with such a diverse group of buyers in such a warm and inviting atmosphere.

This week we attended a 'dinner with the buyer' event by TICKEAT. An amazing welcome by a fantastic host, Heerum Fleary, provided a close-up opportunity to connect with industry contacts which is unheard of in any other setting. A genuinely unique way of bringing people and business together. Insightful, productive, enlightening and innovative. Would highly recommend utilising this great platform and Heerum's dedication to the industry.

Our experience with TickEat at the Travel Show has been overwhelmingly positive. The event is thoughtfully designed and executed, creating a prime opportunity for companies, particularly smaller ones, to build connections within this desirable sector. Working with the TickEat team is seamless, and they bring a high level of organisation, making every step enjoyable. Overall, it's a fantastic show we are proud to champion and will certainly continue to support.

The Tickeat Meet the Buyer is now an annual diarised, unmissable event for anyone serious about working in the travel food and drink supply chain. There is such an opportunity to meet a huge number of key decision makers in a short period of time in a relaxed environment.

Superb to meet quickly a broad range of buyers from across the travel sector - people we may never get to properly speak to in a normal year! Meeting face to face is always better than calls and emails, you can find out so much more and present much easier, especially with products to show. Tickeat event was our first year and the organisation and set up was brilliant. Thanks to the team, we will be back again for 2025!

Both myself and my colleague commented on how well organised the whole event was. The information we were given prior and during the event has been fabulous. I love love love the brochure - it is great to have all the contact details, company overview and faces of the people. The meetings themselves were very relevant and the networking was brilliant. Thank you for inviting us along.

Honestly, the MTB event was the best I've attended, and I wouldn't particularly change anything. The content within the manual provided all the necessary information required to engage with the Buyers we were scheduled to meet and even those we didn't meet on the day. The networking opportunities with fellow suppliers was great, and the overall organisation were exceptional.
Every aspect seemed thoughtfully planned, from the networking dinner the night before, to the seamless transitions between meetings on the main event day. Overall, it exceeded expectations, and I can't think of anything I'd change—it was a top-tier experience.

Attending Tickeat has enabled us to meet key industry buyers in a relaxed, collaborative environment, with just the right amount of time to explore potential opportunities. The event was very well organised and ran smoothly, thanks to the hard work of Heerum, Vassy and the team.

I loved the networking evening! It was fantastic to bring everyone together and create a relaxed space for brands and buyers to connect. I always like hearing the stories and journeys behind each brand.
We're already seeing the benefits of sitting down and having real conversations with buyers. They get a much better sense of who we are and what our brand stands for—unlike at a trade show, where you only have their attention for maybe two minutes.
As a small business, the Tickeat Meet the Buyer event was an incredible opportunity for us. A huge thanks to the Tickeat team for organising such a welcoming and well-run experience! The team made sure everything was smooth and stress-free, so we could focus on our meetings and sharing our products with buyers. Having that face-to-face time with buyers was invaluable, and we walked away with new insights, real connections, and some promising leads. Can't wait for the next one!

This was my first TickEat event, and unsure how it would go. I was very pleasantly surprised at the quality of the buyers that were there. It was great that they were looking at new suppliers and different products. We have several leads to follow up on that could transform the brand next year. I would certainly recommend this event and looking forward to coming again next year
