Football Trade Directory

Looking ahead to 2025 with Football Trade Directory

As the Christmas holidays approach, let's take a look at what the Football Trade Directory has in store in 2025.

This year has been another great year as we continue to push forward with our core goal of bringing businesses and clubs together. 
We've welcomed dozens of new brands to our community, whether that be as FTD Members, Directory advertisers, or event Exhibitors, as well as maintaining our outreach to club personnel to ensure we can provide them with anything they might need.

Next year we're expanding in several areas to try and create as many opportunities for brands and clubs. Here's what we'll be working on in 2025.
Non-League Supplier Events
Having worked with the Northern Premier League and Midland Football League in 2025 hosting supplier events in tandem with official League meetings, we've already seen how beneficial these events can be for supplier and clubs alike. Which is why in 2025 we'll be host four such events with Leagues across the country:
•              Midland Football League Event, Walsall FC, Thursday 20th March, 5pm-9pm

•              Wessex League Event, Eastleigh FC, Thursday 3rd April, 5pm-9pm

•              Northern Premier League AGM Event, Winter Gardens Blackpool, Saturday 14th June, 9am-2pm

•              Northern Counties East League, Rotherham United, Saturday 14th June, 9am-2pm

These events provide a unique opportunity for brands to meet dozens of decision makers in one setting. With Exhibition space only costing £350 per event it's also a cost effective way to showcase your products.

Networking Events

As well as working with our Non-League partners we will be hosting three of our regular Networking Events throughout the year, which are open to clubs and businesses of all levels.

Our flagship event at Hampden Park will be returning along with other events in the spring andd autumn, with dates and venues to be announced in the New Year. 

2024/25 Directory

Also coming in January is the latest edition of the Annual Directory. With the digital version to be released imminently, it will also be going to print ahead of being sent to thousands of our club contacts.

If you're a club official and want to ensure you receive your free copy please do get in touch.

Likewise any businesses who want to check their listing details and status to make sure it's correct, reach out and we'd be happy to help.

If you'd like to find out more about anything else we'd love to arrange a time to speak in more detail in the New Year.

Just email office@footballtradedirectory.com and someone will get back to you.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all the FTD Team!
