Direct2Store Expo – May 2026

Co-operative Supermarkets Australia’s Direct2Store Expo is a dedicated event for the independent retail sector, bringing together retailers, store owners, department managers, and suppliers from across Australia for a high-impact showcase of products, innovation, and industry connection.

The Direct2Store Expo 2026 was an opportunity for Tasmanian businesses to meet directly with suppliers, logistics providers, tech experts, and to build relationships that can support stronger business outcomes for the domestic market. The Direct2Store Expo was held at the International Conference and Exhibition Centre (ICC) Sydney, from Wednesday, 6 to Friday, 8 May 2026, and is considered the largest direct-to-retailer supplier showcase in Australia.
