A FAB launch at the IMC show
The heavy snow kept a few buyers away, but there was the usual warm welcome for all at the IMC menswear buying group meeting in Northants last weekend. Now more than 30 years old, the IMC is a brilliant example of what can be achieved when like-minded retailers work together for their common good. FAB was delighted to be present at the event - our world debut, actually - and we are pleased to note that a large percentage of IMC's retailer members are already members of FAB. Happily, new names were signed up too.
The black tie dinner on the Sunday evening was a well-dressed but informal event. I was particularly pleased that my Black Watch tartan DJ was approved by several members of the Scottish contingent. The IMC had organised a super quiz to be enjoyed throughout the dinner. My table did quite well but we failed to remember all the Seven Dwarfs. How could we have forgotten Sneezy? Well done to all at the IMC for another fine meeting. We are certain there won't be any snow to disrupt the summer event. FAB will be delighted to be there again.
