Change of venue for Scottish Wholesale Association conference

The Scottish Wholesale Association (SWA) has announced that its Connex Conference will proceed as planned on 28 May but with a change of venue – the historic Òran Mór in Glasgow’s west end.

Due to the recent fire on Union Street in Glasgow, the original venue, voco Grand Central Hotel, will not be open in time to host the event. Rather than cancelling, SWA has reviewed alternative options to ensure the conference can still go ahead.

The conference will take place from 9am to 5pm, followed by a networking drinks and canapes reception rather than a sit-down dinner, allowing the event to proceed but helping to reduce the amount of time attendees spend out of their businesses.

Importantly, the conference programme remains in place, with all speakers confirmed and all inspiring and informative content retained as planned.
