Moda introducing e-commerce hub

Moda, the UK’s largest business-to-business fashion trade show, is embracing e-commerce with the introduction

of a dedicated online retail hub, E-Zone Live, at the show from August 2014.

The Birmingham-based trade show said the zone will include a new seminar and feature area and that it has been introduced to create a “new inspiration hub for e-commerce, combining the best products and services with practical business advice.”

The E-Zone Live area will feature a full programme of free seminars and workshops throughout the three-day show covering topics such as effective web design for fashion retail, online payment solutions, product photography, logistics and fulfilment, returns and omni-chanel EPOS systems.

Moda’s organisers said in a press release that the area will also be offering advice for retailers looking to improve their existing online businesses or those making their first steps into online, and that the dedicated e-commerce hub was being included due to e-commerce being a “growing feature” on the trade show’s seminar programme.

Moda will return to the NEC, Birmingham between August 10 and 12, 2014.
