How It Works
Retailers receive a participation form with their registration materials when checking in at Marketplace.

Category Manager Mike Amato of Duane Reade was the winner of last year's Grand Prize Lexus
 
The retailer must visit the booths of Retailer Relay Sponsors, where each sponsoring exhibitor will stamp a designated spot on the form.

 
When the retailer has had their form stamped by all the Relay Sponsors in an exhibit hall, they turn it in for a chance to win prizes.


How your company benefits:

As a Retailer Relay Sponsor, your company will receive the following:

 
Your Company Name highlighted on the Retailer Relay Form.
 
 
Your Booth location and number highlighted on the form's Exhibit Hall Floorplan.
 
 
A sign identifying your booth as an "Official Stamping Station" (as well as the necessary stamping tools).
 
 
The opportunity to meet the many Retailers who will visit your booth to get their form stamped and enter the drawing.
 
And to maximize the value of this program to you, we are limiting participation to a maximum of 30 total sponsors per hall (10 Exploration level sponsors and 20 Luxury Lap level sponsors). That's only 5% of the total number of exhibitors at Marketplace who will have this opportunity to participate! Because this will be such a select group and sponsorship opportunities are so limited, you'll need to act fast. We will sell out again quickly.

Sponsor Participation Levels & Fees:

The Retailer Exploration (only 10 sponsors per hall) -- This level is for sponsors of the Grand Prize -- a Cadillac CTS Luxury Sedan. For a retailer to enter the "Exploration" level they must visit all 10 sponsor booths in each hall by the end of the show and have their form stamped by each sponsoring exhibitor. The cost for this sponsorship level is $995.
The Luxury Lap (only 20 sponsors per hall) -- This level will sponsor the awarding of daily luxury prizes including laptop computers, home theater systems, other cutting-edge electronics, and premium travel prizes each day. To enter, a retailer must visit and have their form stamped at up to 20 sponsoring Luxury Lap exhibitor booths. Cost for sponsorship is $495.

This program was designed to enhance the retailer experience at Marketplace. Funds generated by the program will be used to promote retailer participation at this and future Marketplace Conferences.
