It is not possible to give details of all the competitions. Ont, however, the liveliest which wil arouse interest in shopping circles is the £1000 window-dressing competition. Tais provides an unique chance for the manufacturers of branded goods to demonstrate to their retailers how to display their goods to best advantage. This competition will be judged by photographs.
