Suppliers are being given a chance to pitch to B&Q later this month at a special Innovation and New Products Open Day.
The event, which takes place at the B&Q head office in Eastleigh, Hampshire on Tuesday March 25, will be a Dragon's Den style day, giving applicants a five-minute slot to present their concept to the relevant buying team.
B&Q's Graham Horne said: "As a business we're constantly striving to find ways to provide our customers with innovative products to make their lives easier.
"We believe this day is a great opportunity for people with well-thought-through and polished ideas to come in and meet the right people in a setting they might not usually come across".
Applicants should email
vendor.management@b-and-q.co.uk to confirm attendance, being sure to include company name and address, name of attendees, contact phone number and a brief description of the idea.
