International expansion is the ultimate milestone for any brand. However, doing it alone is a legal and financial minefield. The fastest, most secure way to scale is by partnering with established local distributors who already hold the keys to regional retail and salon networks.
The International Manufacturers & Distributors Forum (IMF), running alongside Professional Beauty London and Salon International this 4 - 5 October, 2026, is a premium, closed-door space designed for one specific purpose: connecting market-ready brands with elite global distributors.
What the delegates say:
"A must for any emerging brand owner."
Keisha Jo Lawler, Founder & Owner, Curly Therapy
"The conference is about sharing knowledge. Collaboration is key."
Oriele Frank, Co-Founder, Elemis
"Amazing networking opportunities."
Gaia Tonanzi, Marketing & Operations Manager, BCM Ltd
Partnering with the right distributor can turn a multi-year expansion struggle into a seamless, fast-tracked launch. If your brand is retail-ready and built to scale, this is the exact room you need to be in.
