Meet the Buyer 2025 Buyer Testimonials
The team at TickEat have worked tirelessly over the years to build this event into what it’s become today — and this year’s was the best yet. It was fantastic to have so many suppliers and buyers together in one room.
For me, TickEat isn’t just about meeting suppliers; it’s also a brilliant opportunity to catch up socially with industry colleagues and friends. Every day’s a school day, and it’s always inspiring to see and learn about new ideas and products.
I really enjoy this event — it’s social, friendly, and genuinely valuable in helping suppliers shape and adapt their offers to suit the evolving needs of the travel industry. Here’s to building new relationships and to the continued growth and success of TickEat in the years ahead!
Foodcase International
The recent TickEat Meet The Buyer event was fantastic. We love attending these events to meet both current and new suppliers who are well set up for industry. The TickEat team take great care of everything meaning we can focus on our meetings with suppliers.
TransPennine Express
Meet The Buyer is a great event. The ability to meet with suppliers on a one to one basis under one roof is invaluable. It saves so much time and gives both buyers and suppliers the chance to explore new opportunities in a relaxed and informal atmosphere. The whole event was very professional and well organised. Highly recommended.
Cavendish Ships Stores
Excellent event with quality suppliers. Having sit-down meetings and taking the time to discuss with multiple potential suppliers is a rare occasion.
Momentum Services Ltd
It was great to connect with new suppliers, most of which I wouldn't have if not for the event. Similarly great to catch up with industry colleagues.
This year, I enjoyed having additional suppliers at the Taster Session during dinner. It was a nice relaxed environment in which to meet the suppliers and sample the products. A good use of the time.

The Tickeat event was great to meet new suppliers and explore possibilities for our future business together.

This was my first time attending and it was a fantastic experience. The range and quantity of new suppliers, products and brands seen was great. Supplier networking was key over the 2 day event, and the supplier meetings were paired very well by TickEat. Overall an amazing "Meet the Buyer" event organised by TickEat.
