Hardware Retailing The Industry's Source for Insights and Information
The newly redesigned NHS Concept to Commerce is gearing up to feature several new elements and curated programming designed for purposeful connections, product innovation and fresh ideas, taking place March 31–April 2, 2026, at the Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall.
For attendees seeking an elevated and personalized experience at this year’s event, the Hosted VIP Program is designed for qualified product, sourcing and private label teams attending NHS Concept to Commerce. Hosted buyers will receive perks like travel support, VIP access, on-site support and increased visibility at the event, with participation promoted on the NHS website, in pre-show communications and through exhibitor outreach on-site.
The exclusive Retailer Review Program is also a feature provided to Hosted VIP buyers, providing an avenue for retailer-led supplier introductions without the need for required meetings or commitments. Exhibitors submit company information at an on-site kiosk at the event and submissions are shared with retailer teams directly. Reviews are based on current needs, category priorities and sourcing strategies.
The Hosted VIP Program is open to professionals associated with sourcing and procurement; private label and OEM programs; product development and innovation; and merchandising and category strategy. Interested participants can apply on the NHS Concept to Commerce website. If accepted, confirmation and travel details will be sent to qualified buyers. After experiencing the VIP experience at the event, buyers will have the opportunity to submit a post-show review of submitted companies.
