Entries are now open for the Scottish Wholesale Achievers Awards 2027, with two new categories introduced to reflect the evolving wholesale landscape.

Scottish Wholesale Association and NFU Scotland have brought together leaders from across Scotland's food, farming, hospitality and tourism sectors to identify opportunities to increase the sourcing of Scottish produce.

SWA Chief Executive Colin Smith shares his reflections following the Connex conference.

Bringing the wholesale channel together, sharing what works, preparing for what's to come, and strengthening sector resilience formed the basis of the SWA conference last week.

The latest SWA report brings together key findings from the most recent member survey, outlining sector performance, trends, and outlook.

The conference will take place at Òran Mór, Glasgow, as the original venue voco Grand Central remains closed following a recent fire.
