Checkout Buyer's Guide 2012
Due out in Spring 2012, Checkout Magazine launches a completely updated, revamped and redesigned edition of our Checkout Buyer’s Guide, The Ultimate Guide To The Irish Grocery Industry & FMCG Sector. The revamped design is the result of direct feedback from users and advertisers.
The revamped Guide will offer new features and sections to fully showcase the best the industry has to offer, as well as providing valuable advice to those in the sector. While the economy still remains unsettled, the Checkout Buyer’s Guide will provide the relevant information to enable you to streamline your business to the needs of the modern consumer.
For the first time, the Checkout Buyer’s Guide will also be placed online, as part of a fully searchable revamped Checkout website, www.checkout.ie, allowing our clients access to real time updates for their online entries.
