Evolve Events, the award winning full service event planning company, has reported an increase in retail business being placed at Kent House Knightsbridge. The summer is traditionally a time for the food sector and major retailers to present their Christmas showcases and highlight their new seasonal products and offerings.

Evolve’s recent client wins in the sector include Pret a Manger and Waitrose; underlining  data from The Office for National Statistics that states the amount spent in the food sector is boosting overall UK retail sales.*

Kent House is noted for being discreetly placed in Knightsbridge and remains a full townhouse with a variety of rooms, thus making it a perfect choice for event organisers who are looking for an event space that can be individually styled to reflect brand messages.

Anna Peters, Marketing Director of Evolve Events, said: “We are seeing a demonstrable uptake in enquiries and confirmations from the food market, not only because it is the time when they put on their major product launches for the Christmas season, but because there is an increasing confidence in the sector too”.
