Mercer Leisure had their busiest first day at a SOLEX Exhibition ever.  The company has been attending SOLEX since 2008 and says it has been a pleasure to see the show grow year on year.

A company spokesperson said: "The attendance appears to be increasing and the recent good weather has certainly put a smile on everyone’s face.

"We have been overwhelmed at the response to our 14 new ranges and our stars of the show are the Amalfi, Lisbon, Barcelona and Valencia ranges. All ranges that offer great value for money and an extensive product offering.

"All our garden furniture is available as own branding which helps to increase margins and sales because you are not competing directly with other retailers or Internet companies. Take back control of your profits and sales. All details are available on the stand.

"We have had a great response to our pallet deals of Teak, Aluminium and Gravity relaxers along with parasols and bases which give retailers a healthy return on their spend as well as offering real value for money as Bank Holiday and manager specials.

"Innovation has always been our aim and we have achieved this with our Windsor and Kensington ranges which have full weatherproof cushions upholstered into the back and sides of the chairs, we are delighted with the compliments that we have received on these ranges and the reaction to our casual dining set in the new products area.

"We would like to thank all our friends and customers who came onto our stand today and apologise to anyone if you were not unable to talk to us at the busy times – I would encourage you to please call back.

"Check us out on Stands 420 & 425."
